We present circular polarization observations of the intraday variable sources PKS 0405-385 and PKS 1519-273. We find strong (>1%) and variable circular polarization for PKS 1519-273, well correlated with fluctuations in the total flux density at 4.8 and 8.6GHz. The circular polarization of PKS 0405-385 is weaker and less correlated with the total intensity, but shows fast variability on a timescale similar to the total flux density changes. We find no simple explanation for the origin of the circular polarization.
