Just a reminder to check the first and last doses from a bag of coffee that you buy. Foreign material usually either floats to the top of a bag, or sinks to the bottom.
This is especially for coffee from a smaller roasting company that may not use a destoner, magnets, colour sorter, and/or other means to clean up coffee after roasting.
The little bit of concrete in the pic was probably from a drying patio. This coffee was from the bottom of a 1kg bag from a roaster who does use a colour sorter post-roast. Nothing is perfect.

Good reminder to check for stones and debris. Over the past decade of buying roasted coffee, it's only happened to me twice. Fortunately, I noticed them before they went in the grinder. I don't think I would have noticed the object that jpender found, though.

Don't know for sure, but if it came in a bag of Luwak coffee, it could be a constipated bit of civet excreta.
