"Dicey," as it has affectionately come to be known, washed up on the store near City Park in March, 2017.  It was later learned that the die, which is believed to be an old water tank that weighs well over 1,000 pounds, first appeared on the shores of a property along the Coeur d'Alene River in Caltaldo, Idaho, in 2001.  During a period of flooding in 2008, the tank then floated away and washed up at Driftwood Point.  There, it sat for some time before a local property owner decided to spruce it up a bit with some white dots - making it a die.  In 2017, it washed away and appeared in downtown Coeur d'Alene.  No one came forward to claim the die, so the City took possession of it.  The die was officially installed on Tuesday, April 7, 2020.  

The plaque installed with the die commemorates the chance encounter, giving readers its name along with its birth story:  "Dicey," it reads, "A gift from Lake Coeur d'Alene Spring 2017."
