Found vintage coin album in Potsdam-Canton-Massena
I found a small leather-bound coin album this afternoon around 3:15pm near Market Street by the Potsdam Public Library. Inside there are about a dozen vintage coins, a few foreign pieces, and a folded receipt from a garage sale in the '90s. The cover is dark green with a brass clasp that sticks a bit, and there's a tiny sticker with the initials 'M.P.' on the inside cover. I can tell this is something a serious collector would want, so I’m hoping to reunite it with its rightful owner. If you’re missing a coin album, tell me the year on the receipt or details about a rare coin inside, and I’ll return it.
SUNY Potsdam student ID on blue lanyard
Yesterday around 3pm I lost my SUNY Potsdam student ID card near the Potsdam Public Library on Market Street. It's a standard campus ID on a bright blue lanyard, with my photo and name visible. The back has a coffee stain and a small scratch on the bottom-right corner from a jammed day, plus a tiny star sticker I put there for quick ID. I really rely on it for building access and campus printing, so it matters a lot to me to get it back. If you found it, please text me or email—I'd be forever grateful.
Red Trek mountain bike, 29er, blue bottle cage
I lost my red Trek mountain bike yesterday around 3pm after leaving it locked near Clarkson University's Student Center on Market Street in Potsdam, part of the Potsdam-Canton-Massena area. When I came back, the bike was gone from the rack. It's a red Trek 29er with a black saddle and a blue water bottle cage mounted on the downtube; there's a small chip on the top tube from a minor crash last season. I've had it for years and it was a gift from my dad, so it really means a lot to me. If someone spots it, reach me at [email protected].
Missing person: Emma Li, 12, pink hoodie
I’m looking for my daughter Emma Li, 12, who I last saw yesterday around 3:15 pm near Clarkson University's Park Street entrance in Potsdam. She was wearing a pink hoodie, dark jeans, and green sneakers with white stripes, and she has a blue hair clip in her hair. She wears a silver bracelet with a blue star pendant on her left wrist, which is one of her distinguishing features. I’m really worried and just want her safe and back with us; possible sightings along Market Street, near the Potsdam Public Library, or around Clarkson’s campus. If you spot her, email me at [email protected] so we can reunite quickly.
Blue U.S. passport in leather sleeve
I lost my blue U.S. passport yesterday around 3pm somewhere near the Potsdam Public Library on Park Street in Potsdam. It's inside a black leather sleeve that's a little scuffed and has a faint coffee ring on the corner. The passport itself is the navy-blue cover with the gold Great Seal; inside, the pages show slight curling from my last trip. The sleeve also has a small red 'Priority' travel tag, a real unique feature I noticed after packing. It’s essential for my upcoming work trip, so I’m really hoping it surfaces soon. If anyone finds it, please email me and we can arrange a safe handoff in Potsdam-Canton-Massena.
Grey North Face fleece jacket with blue zipper
I lost my grey North Face fleece jacket yesterday around 3pm. It’s a men’s medium zip-up, soft fleece, with a blue zipper pull that sticks sometimes. The jacket is in decent condition, just a bit pilled from daily wear, and there’s a small coffee stain on the inside pocket. I was walking from Clarkson University toward Market Street, near the campus bus stop behind the student center, when I last had it. It has sentimental value because it was a gift from my sister. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back!
Blue hardcover edition of The Night Circus
I was at the Potsdam Public Library on Park Street yesterday around 3pm, paging through a few titles. My blue hardcover edition of The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern vanished from my tote; it’s the one with gold foil on the spine and a pink ribbon bookmark sticking out. There’s a tiny coffee stain along the back cover and a yellow sticker inside that reads 'Property of Priya K.' It’s really sentimental—it was a gift from a friend who helped me through a rough year—and I’d be so grateful to have it back. If you found it, drop a note here and I’ll meet you at the library to pick it up.
Found black Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones
I found a pair of black Sony WH-1000XM4 noise-cancelling headphones this afternoon around 2:15pm behind the Potsdam Public Library on Market Street. They’re in pretty good shape, just a faint scuff on the right earcup and a tiny fray in the fabric on the headband. They came with a matte black carrying sleeve, and there’s a bright blue sticker on the zipper pull with the initials 'LJ'—a small but easy identifying feature. I figured someone must be missing them, especially since they were tucked under a bench near the bike racks by the library parking lot. If these are yours, describe the last thing you listened to or the color of your charging cable to prove ownership.
Silver Yamaha flute with black case
I lost my silver Yamaha flute yesterday around 3pm outside the Potsdam Public Library on Market Street. It's a Yamaha YFL-222, silver-plated, with a black hard case and red velvet lining; there are light scratches along the body and a tiny dent near the lip plate. The headjoint cap has my initials 'PR' engraved, and the zipper pull on the case is a bit loose. It means a lot to me—it's been in the family and was a gift from my grandfather; I really need it back.
Navy queen duvet cover with white piping
I lost my navy blue queen-size duvet cover with white piping yesterday around 3pm near the Potsdam Public Library on Park Street. It's a SleepWell duvet cover, smooth cotton with a sturdy zipper, and there's a tiny coffee stain near the zipper pull. There's a SleepWell tag stitched in the bottom corner, and a faint heart outline you can only see when it's inside out. It was a gift from my grandmother, so it means a lot to me, and I'm really hoping to get it back. If you found it, please reach out.
Gray enamel pocket compass with lime clip
Category: Other Miscellaneous Items. Found a compact gray enamel pocket compass with a neon lime-green clip this afternoon around 3:30pm outside the Potsdam Food Co-op on Market Street in Potsdam. It's about 1.5 inches across, with a tiny scratch on the glass and a dent along the rim. The back is engraved with the initials 'KJ', and there’s a small red fabric lanyard still attached. If this belongs to you, I’d love to get it back—I know how easy it is to misplace a tiny thing like this, and I’m hoping to reunite it with its owner in the Potsdam-Canton-Massena area.
Blue U.S. passport with gold eagle
I lost my blue U.S. passport yesterday around 2:15pm near Clarkson University on Park Street in Potsdam. The cover is the standard blue with the gold eagle emblem, and the back has a tiny coffee stain along the edge from a spill at a cafe. The passport itself is in decent shape, but the bottom-right corner has a small dent I’ve never fixed. It’s really important to me because I was about to start a trip, and it carries sentimental value from a family journey years ago. If someone found it, I’d be grateful to get it back as soon as possible; it would mean a lot to have it returned.
Blue plush dinosaur and puzzle found
I found a small blue plush dinosaur and a wooden 24-piece puzzle in the parking lot behind the Potsdam Public Library on Market Street this afternoon, around 2:15pm. The dinosaur is about 12 inches tall, bright blue with a yellow belly and a tiny stitched scar on its left leg; the puzzle comes in a red tin with a fox image on the lid. They’re in good condition, a little grass-stained but clean. I figure they belong to a kid who was at the library story hour, and I’d love to help get them back to their owner.
Tan-and-white beagle mix found near library
I found a friendly dog this afternoon around 4:15pm wandering near the Potsdam Public Library on Park Street. It's a beagle mix, about 25 pounds, tan with a white chest and a white-tipped tail, wearing a blue harness and a round metal tag that says Milo. He seems well-cared for, wagging his tail and soaking up ear rubs, and he has a small notch scar on his right hind leg. I checked for a microchip but didn't see one. I brought him to a safe spot by the library steps and I'll stay here to help reunite him with his family; if this is your dog, I'm here to help get him home.
Black Ray-Ban style glasses with engraving
I lost my black Ray-Ban style glasses yesterday around 3pm outside Clarkson University student center on Market Street in Potsdam. They’re square-ish plastic frames with a glossy finish, and there’s a tiny scratch on the upper rim of the right temple. Inside the left temple sits engraved initials 'KM'. I came with a gray microfiber sleeve, and there’s a small campus logo sticker on the sleeve. I really need them back—these are my daily glasses for reading and driving, and I’ve worn them since last fall. If anyone finds them, I’d be grateful to get them back; I can meet you near the student center or at the bookstore.
