Black leather business card holder
Description
I found a black leather business card holder this afternoon around 2:30pm outside the City Market Building on Market Street in Roanoke. It's a compact, pebble-textured piece with a single red stitch along the outer edge and a small brass plate on the front engraved with 'J.P.' Inside there are a couple of business cards peeking out, one for a Roanoke-based design studio, and a slightly wrinkled receipt from a coffee shop. The holder shows light wear from daily use, but the initials and the red stitching are still crisp. If this belongs to you, message me here and we can figure out next steps to get it back.

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.
