Mens Flat Link Gold Chain - August 2019

Co. Cork Lost listing Posted almost 7 years ago

Description

Last weekend we took a short mini break down to the Cork area when unfortunately on Friday 9th August 2019 I noticed I had lost my chain, we think it was probably lost in the central area around St Patrick's Street / Oliver Plunkett Street. It is unusual in that it was not brought in Ireland so it has different hallmarks / style from what is available in Ireland or the UK.

My chain is gold with a solid flat link design. It is 585mm long (23"), 5mm wide (0.2") and has a square slot in clasp with a clip over safety catch that clips over a small ball on the side of the clasp.

I have owned my chain for 27 years so it has great sentimental value as it was a gift from a departed uncle. If it is found I would greatly appreciate it return and will off a reward for it's return.

How to safely get your item back

A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.

Verify the finder before meeting
  • Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
  • Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
  • Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
  • Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
  • Garda stations, cafĂ© 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 asking your local Garda station for advice first.
Keep communication on Lost.ie
  • 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, PPS numbers, or copies of your ID.
