Our neighbors daughter found a coin purse so dirty and old in the street while going home from school. She is used of going home alone and just walk by herself. The school is not that far away and can be access by walking. She did not pick it immediately because she thought that it was just a trash. Instead she played it by kicking the purse while on walk until she arrived in their house. Because she has to stop until there, she picked it up and opened it out of curiosity. She never expected that there’s content inside which is 1000Php bill (almost 20USD).

That;s a case of finders , keepers because there was no name to determine whose purse was it. Lucky girl!

@ZedSmart Yes, the owner might be needing it for their foods or medicines.

@SIMPLYD Perhaps. It would be hard to accept the fact otherwise they intently disposed the old purse without checking it has still a valuable.

Not bad money for just kicking an old coin purse and picking it up.

I think it's common. There were just times that we lost valuables like this. Good thing if its identifiable so that we could return it.

She was. I just thought on the owner. If the owner lost it and knew that it's still had the cash, it should be hard for him/her. If the owner threw it intentionally considering it a trash, I just wish it was checked first.

She was lucky as there is not way to know anything about the owner.
