Abstract.The list of properties of Fibonacci numbers $F_n$ (with multifaceted relevance in physics) is complemented by an empirical observation that in combination with the ``next" family of the ``delayed Fibonacci" numbers $G_m$ (called, for convenience, ``Gibonacci numbers" here), both sets exhibit certain remarkable and fairly unexpected asymptotic mutual-bracketing properties.
