A gold bar weighing in at one kilogram was dropped into a charity collection box in the Belarussian city of Brest, the country's ONT television reported on Friday.

The gold bar was discovered in a charity box set up in a grocery store to collect money for the Orthodox Church. It is unknown who donated the $50,000 gold brick, but the anonymous donator also took the time to slip the brick's certificate of authentication into the collection box as well.

According to the store's security personnel, a middle-aged man dumped the gold brick into the box. The man had apparently earlier attempted to hand the brick to a local church groundskeeper, however he refused to accept the donation.

A local church official said the donation would be enough to almost completely pay for the construction of a new church.
