Description
I lost a small red leather coin display case with a tiny vintage coin collection yesterday around 3pm near the Easton Public Market on Harrison Street. The case is about 4x6 inches with a brass clasp, and the bottom corner is a bit worn; the back bears a faint 'SH' engraving. Inside sits four coins on a white foam insert: two Morgan silver dollars (one has a tiny rim nick at around 2 o'clock) and an old Indian Head cent. There’s also a tiny photo of my late grandfather taped to the inside lid. This collection means a lot to me and I’d be really grateful to get it back.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
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.
