Lost & found collectors items in Manchester

Lost stamps near Piccadilly Gardens

While I waited for a friend outside Manchester Piccadilly Station around 7:15 p.m. on Monday, my small blue tin of stamps slipped from my bag and vanished from sight. I must have left it on a bench near the entrance, because I turned away briefly to check my watch and didn't see it when I looked back. The stamps aren’t valuable in monetary terms, but they connect to my late grandfather and a little collection I was building, so losing them feels personal. I’m hoping someone nearby around Piccadilly Gardens might have found them and kept them safe.
