Caps stash (Fallout 76)

A caps stash is a world object and container

Characteristics
A gray tin full of bottlecaps. It is not an item that can be placed in the inventory, but rather like a bobby pin box in that it adds a random amount of bottlecaps to one's inventory instead. Caps stashes are treated as containers, with the caps already held inside.

Although the contents of caps stashes in Fallout 76 are instanced, the stashes themselves are not guaranteed spawns and may not spawn in the world that the player character is in. Changing the server will affect caps stash spawns.
