Lucky lira?

""It may be the legendary lucky lira/euro that is supposedly hidden in the car at the factory. If so, don't remove it or something nasty could happen!""
Just read this in a post? Whats the legend? (apart from the obvious )

Re: Lucky lira?

I know someone who owned an Austin Meastro, and on taking the front wing off to replace it due to rust he found an old beer tin.
