A US woman has received a bid of more than $4,000 for a McDonald's Chicken McNugget she put on eBay.

Rebekah Speight put the fastfood product up for auction on the website because she thinks it looks like former US President George Washington.

"Approximately 3 years ago, I treated my children to “99 cent McNugget Tuesday” and play time at our local McDonald’s," she stated.

"As I was cleaning up, I noticed one particular nugget and began to laugh. I picked it up for a closer look, and sure enough it was in the likeness of President George Washington. I decided to take it home and show my husband this hysterical find."

She is aiming to raise $15,000 to send 50 kids from the Sioux City Family Worship Center to a summer camp, the Sioux City Journal reports.

After receiving an early bid of $100 for the nugget, she said: "We just screamed. We don't know who it is or where they're from. That bid came within the first hour."

The top bid is now $4,100.
