Blue tortoiseshell Ray-Ban glasses with silver hinges

I lost my blue tortoiseshell Ray-Ban glasses yesterday around 3pm near the Java Jolt coffee shop on Main Street in Mattoon-Charleston. They're mid-sized, acetate front with silver hinges and clear lenses. The left temple has a tiny engraving inside that reads 'PP', and there’s a small scratch along the bottom corner of the left lens. They came with a slim black hard case that I left at home, so I’m hoping someone picked up the glasses themselves. I really need them back for work and daily use—they’re my go-to pair and mean a lot to me.

Silver pendant necklace with heart charm

I lost my silver pendant necklace yesterday around 3pm near the Mattoon Public Library on Main Street, in the Mattoon-Charleston area. It's an 18-inch sterling silver chain with a small heart pendant about the size of a fingernail. On the back, the initials 'M.K.' are etched faintly, and there’s a tiny flower engraved on the front near the bottom. The chain shows a little patina from wear, but it's still shiny in the light. This necklace was a gift from my grandmother and means a lot to me; I’ve worn it almost every day since she passed. If anyone found it, please drop me a message—I'd be forever grateful to get it back.

Gold-tone teardrop earrings with pearl charm

I lost my gold-tone teardrop earrings with a tiny pearl charm yesterday around 3pm outside the Coffee Collective on Main Street in downtown Mattoon. They’re about 1/2 inch long, unbranded, with a delicate finish that’s a little worn from daily wear. One earring has a tiny initial 'A' engraved on the back. They were a gift from my grandmother and mean a lot to me; I’d be heartbroken to lose them. If you found them, I’d be grateful to meet near the bus stop by Lincoln Park to pick them up.

Beagle mix with blue collar and red tag

I lost my beagle mix yesterday around 6pm near Mattoon Square on Main Street. He's a medium-sized dog, about 25 pounds, tan-and-white with long ears and a white patch on his chest. He wears a blue nylon collar with a red heart-shaped tag that has his name, Biscuit, and my number. I last saw him wandering toward the library and East Center Street; he's a little shy with strangers but super sweet once he warms up, and this dog means the world to me.

Gold ring with initials and ruby

I was in the Mattoon-Charleston area yesterday around 3pm and I must have dropped this ring somewhere near the Mattoon Town Square, probably by the Bank on 6th Street. It's a gold ring, about a size 6, with a small ruby and a subtle brushed finish. The inner band is engraved with 'M.K.' and there's a tiny scratch along the outside edge—easy to identify. It means the world to me because it was a gift from my grandmother, and I’m really hoping to get it back.

White AirPods Pro with cracked charging case

I found a pair of white AirPods Pro this afternoon around 3:15pm in the Walmart parking lot on West Lincoln Ave in Mattoon. The charging case lid is cracked and there's a small blue sticker with the initials 'LM' on the back. The earbuds themselves look clean, with a minor scuff on the left earbud. If you’re the owner, they’re safe with me and I’d love to get them back; I know they can be sentimental and expensive to replace, really hoping to reunite them with you soon.

Glasses found: black rectangular frames with initials inside

I found a pair of glasses this afternoon around 3pm behind the Starbucks on Main Street in downtown Mattoon-Charleston. They're black rectangular frames with a matte finish and tortoiseshell temples. Inside the right temple is the initials 'KB' etched in small letters, and there's a light scratch on the left lens. They look in decent shape aside from that, and I figure someone is probably missing them and could really use them back. If these belong to you, I’d be happy to help you get them back to you.

Gray Nike running shoes with neon accents, size 10

I found a pair of Nike running shoes this afternoon around 3:15pm near Mattoon Square on Main Street, in the Mattoon-Charleston area. They’re men’s size 10, gray with neon lime green accents and white soles. The left toe has a small scuff, and there’s a blue sticker on the insole with the initials 'K.S.' They look lightly worn, probably a few months old. If these belong to someone, I’d love to help get them back; just tell me the scuff on the toe and the initials on the sticker to claim them.

Sunburst Pearl snare drum with sticks

I found a sunburst Pearl snare drum, 14x5 inches, with chrome hardware and a few light scratches along the shell. It was in the parking lot behind the Mattoon Public Library on Broadway Ave this afternoon around 2:30 pm. There are Vic Firth 5A sticks tucked inside the snare and a faded sticker on the bottom hoop that says 'Jazz Band 7-3'—that should help ID the owner. The drum looks well-loved but playable; if you’re missing it, I’d be glad to help get it back, perhaps meet up near the library.

Silver-tone ring found near Coles County Courthouse

I found a slim silver-tone ring this afternoon near the Coles County Courthouse in downtown Charleston, in the Mattoon-Charleston area. It's roughly a size 6, with a tiny cubic zirconia stone set in a four-prong head, and the band has a brushed finish. The inside is stamped "925" and bears the initials "L.S." for a potential owner. The ring is in good condition aside from a few micro-scratches, and I'm hoping to reunite it with its person—please reach out if this sounds like yours.
