Who has found money? How much?

I have never found large amounts. Small change, low amount bills.
One time my wife and I were walking through a park and we saw a few coins on the ground. We picked them up and looked around and found a lot more. It must have been like 50 NIS , which nowadays it equivalent to about $15.

I found $15,000 in a wallet that was sitting on top of a payphone at LaGuardia Airport in New York one time.

It was a payphone right beside my departure gate, so I sat there for an hour waiting for my flight anyway, thinking that if the owner of the money came along and starting freaking out over it, that I would just surrender it if that happened.

But then my flight was further delayed by another hour, which meant I sat there for 2 hours in total, but nobody ever showed up to claim it. So, I just put the money in my carry-on bag and eventually boarded my plane and went home with it.
