Locating Noises in Maxima

I was wondering if anyone else has had this noise. It only shows up on rough roads (like brick roads or cracking pavement). There is a "tinkling" noise somewhere in the driver area. It almost sounds like keys rattling together, in fact that is what I thought it was, but I held all my keys the other day and that was not it. Sounds like maybe a screw with a washer is loose and the washer is rattling against the screw head. Anyone hear this?

No loose change
Could be strut, but the sound is inside the car
Not the passenger seat clip
Nothing in the glove box
Nothing in the armrest
