But if you didn’t spot it in time, no worries.

The answer key below shows that it’s hidden in plain sight.

Redditors said they were able to spot it quickly because of a tell-tale detail.

“Once I saw Taco Bell, I was able to find it immediately. That color is ingrained in my memory,” a Redditor commented.

“The Taco Bell? Pretty easy one,” another said.

“Found it! Right next to the ketchup,” one joked.

The Taco Bell red fire-flavored hot sauce packet is on the left side of the picture.

In the drawer, it is located near the middle peeking out and slightly turned to the side.

Benefits of brainteasers and optical illusions

Researchers have developed many tests to show how various brain regions react to brainteasers and optical illusions. There are many benefits.

• They are not only entertaining, but they also shed light on how our brains interpret visual data.
• By giving your brain a little workout regularly, you enhance your ability to focus and observe details.
• Studies have shown people who regularly challenge themselves with optical illusions and puzzles see big improvements in their problem-solving skills, concentration, and attention.
• Improved concentration and attention span can help prevent cognitive decline in old age.
• Optical illusions can improve eyesight by allowing you to see small print.

The dime is located to the far left near the middle of the frame.

A Redditor gave a “verbal treasure map” of where to spot it in the photo.

“Far left, under the three pennies making a line outward to the ‘Northwest.’ Dime is dirty/rusty; under a penny tail-side up,” they wrote.

The tail-side-up penny has a shield on it, instead of the Lincoln Memorial.
