Lost & found collectors items in Tampa Bay Area

Vintage enamel pin collection in green pouch

I was wandering along the Tampa Riverwalk near Sparkman Wharf yesterday around 3pm when my vintage enamel pin collection vanished from my shoulder bag. It was inside a small olive-green zippered pouch with my initials ML stitched in the corner; the zipper is a bit frayed. The pins range in size about 1 to 1.5 cm, with a purple dragon pin and a tiny lighthouse pin being the standout pieces; some have a bit of patina. This collection means a lot to me because my grandfather started it and it felt like a little memory box. If anyone picked it up or saw it, I’d really appreciate getting it back—thanks so much.
