Gold-tone bracelet with emerald bead and initials
Description
Found a bracelet this afternoon around 4:15pm on West King Street, outside Boone's Coffee Co., near the Boone Plaza entrance. It's a gold-tone bracelet with a slim chain, about 6.5 inches long, and a small emerald-green bead near the clasp. There's a tiny heart charm with the initials 'LS' engraved—hard to miss. The metal has light scratches from wear, but it's in good condition otherwise. I know bracelets can be sentimental and I'd really like to see it back with its owner. If this sounds like yours, message me here and we can arrange a handoff—I can meet downtown Boone or at the library.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
