Item #: SCP-5815
Clearance Level 2: Restricted

Object Class: Euclid
Disruption Class: 4/Ekhi
Risk Class: 1/Notice

Special Containment Procedures: All instances of SCP-5815 are to be kept in a 11x11x11 meter room. Research is recommended to take place inside the chamber, but should research be done outside of it, all before and after test instances of SCP-5815 have to be returned afterward. The volume of all instances should always be less than 1/16 of the volume of the room. If the volume exceeds this limit, instances should be disposed of in the incineration hole in the middle of the room until the total volume is under the limit. The incineration hole is to be checked on weekly to ensure it’s functionality.

Should the incineration hole stop melting SCP-5815 (as the result of an electrical blackout or something similar), instances over the limit should be stored somewhere else and should be incinerated as soon as possible to prevent uncontrollable over-duplication of SCP-5815 and possible theft. The 1331m³ room will be enough to contain them for about 22 days without manual removal. Each personnel after coming into contact with an instance of SCP-5815 will have to be put through a metal scanner to deter the possibility of SCP-5815 being used for other purposes than testing and containing. Any personnel found to carry an instance of SCP-5815 with them after leaving will result in an interview and possibly a resignation or demotion.

Description: SCP-5815 (nicknamed “[INSERT CHEESY NICKNAME]”) are multiple regular 1 Euro (€, EUR) coins found in civilian ██████ ████’s (famous numismatic) car located in ██████████, Slovakia with an obverse side of varying design. Each coin is anomalous in that it makes an exact copy of itself once in a 24-hour time span (set to the timezone GMT+2 as is in Slovakia)¹ , effectively duplicating itself. The times at which it duplicates is random, though it may be different each day, every instance of SCP-5815 will duplicate at the same time together. It was observed that if an instance of SCP-5815 is being watched by a living conscious being, it can’t undergo duplication. Note that this only affects the coins that are being watched, the coins that aren’t watched at the moment of duplication can duplicate. Live footage and high-speed camera recordings show us that duplication happens instanteniously, making the duplication methods a mystery. Since the times at which they duplicate are random, containment methods of watching SCP-5815 to prevent it from over-duplicating are deemed inefficient.

The coins have a 50% chance for the obverse (national) side of their duplicates to have a different design on them from the 35 different 1 Euro coins (including designs that have been decommissioned). Multiple tests have also shown that if an instance gets edited in some way (e.g. with a laser cut), the duplicated instance keeps the edit. Duplication of instances that have been melted and fused together with external metals and substances have been partially successful. If an instance has been edited beyond recognition, the obverse sides do not change with duplication. Methods of stopping duplication are yet to be found.

Addendum: Dr. ███████: “It is very important that we keep all instances of SCP-5815 contained. What if someone finds a method of removing the anomalous properties of duplicated instances? Imagine someone keeping them in some kind of warehouse or garage, leaving them to duplicate, and then somehow removing that duplication anomaly from them, and depositing them into the bank! That someone could become a billionaire in a month!² All it would take is a single SCP-5815 in the wrong hands. It would be silly depositing a billion coins at the bank, but money is money. Heck, he could even make more money by selling the coins with decommissioned designs! Actually, now that I think about it, can’t The Foundation use this to their advantage..? We could then technically reclassify this SCP as Thaumiel… All we have to do is figure out how to stop the duplication, and voilà, infinite funding.“

SCP-5672

A random person inside SCP-5672 before being locked away at Site 32. He could probably have better use of it than we do.

Nickname: Not an anomalous object

Item #: SCP-5672

Object Class: Absolutely safe and non-anomalous

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-5672 is to be kept in a locked garage at Site 32 just big enough to store an airport car. That’s it. Just don’t lose the keys, I guess.

Description: SCP-5672… Wait… I don’t feel like calling it an SCP… Well… Object 5672 is a non-anomalous airport car that was serving its non-anomalous purpose before being locked away at Site 32. Why was it locked there? Nobody knows. It’s there, and it will be there, even though it does not pose any anomalous properties. Maybe someone thought it would be a good idea to put it here..? Anyway, it’s just a normal airport car. I am 100% sure that there is absolutely no anomalous property to it. It is normal. Why is it here? I don’t know. I thought one of the purposes of this foundation was to protect, but what is there to protect? This is not anomalous. It should not be here!

Addendum 5672-1: Dr. Martin: “Yup, I don’t think that there is anything anomalous about this SCP. I’m using that term very, very lightly. It is secured, it is contained, and sort of protected..? From what anyway? I don’t know, now I’m out to research more anomalous objects than this absolutely normal airport car.”

Idea: Yes, it is indeed anomalous, but no one will think that it is because of it's anomalous property: Everyone thinks it is not anomalous. Yes, this is a crappy SCP and will probably not make it through the greenlight process, but hey, since you're here even though you shouldn't be, remember to rate this when it someday gets to the actual wiki. Yeah, why are you here? Go look at 5815, because that is why you are here, not because of this.

Footnotes

1. (the earliest duplication recorded was 00:23 GMT+2 and the latest was 23:41 GMT+2)

2. If beginning with 1 instance, waiting 720 hours (or 30 days (or approximately 1 month)) will result in having 1,073,741,824 instances at the end. You could buy 298,261,617 Big Macs™ from the McDonald’s food chain in Europe. The volume of all the coins would reach 1062.17m³.
