I found a wallet once and it belonged to a 92 year old man when I called and gave the wallet back he had his ss card in it and it wasn't paper. I think it was silver plated

yes, I would have given it back to him also espically if their was ID in it. I would expect the same thing if my wallet was lost too.

I will try to track down of the owner and return it to him/her. I bet he/she needs it very important and its a pity if he/she wont find the money.

I have actually found wallets with sums of cash in them, always I have turned them in either to the police, or tried to locate the owner. All too often that amount could be the difference between having a descent month for someone or not being able to eat properly. On the other hand, I have had amounts taken from me which had a negative effect. I couldn't sleep at night feeling I may have affected someone's life negatively by keeping something which wasn't mine.
