Aboriginal green round coin purse lost near Galway U.H.

Co. Galway Lost listing Posted over 6 years ago

Description

Supermac's across the road paid for food. Walked back to car at maternity ward. Lost between those spots around 2nd wkend in December. Long shot but sentimental. Large sum of money inside but I don't expect to get that back. It's green with aboriginal dots for any lovely person out there who may have found it, I thought I'd post this ad. Thanks a mil.

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.
