Brown Coach wallet with teal interior

I lost my brown Coach wallet yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on College Street in Cedar Falls, by the UNI campus. It’s a genuine brown leather wallet with the Coach logo embossed on the outside, and the interior lining is teal. There are a few cards and about $25 in cash inside, along with my driver's license. The wallet has some minor wear on the bottom-right corner, but otherwise looks the same. It has sentimental value because it was a gift from my mom, and I’d be really grateful to get it back. If you found it, please reach out — I really need it back.

Black matte Wayfarer glasses with bent temple

I lost my black matte Wayfarer-style glasses yesterday around 3pm near the Waterloo Center for the Arts on 2nd Street in Waterloo. They have clear prescription lenses and a tiny chip near the nose pad, with the left temple a bit bent and the inside of the right temple engraved with a small 'A'. They’re my everyday glasses for work, so I’m really hoping someone picked them up and can return them. I rely on them all day, and they’ve got sentimental value since I’ve had them for a few years.

Gold ring with emerald stone, lost near Cedar Falls Library

I lost my gold ring yesterday around 5:15pm near the Cedar Falls Public Library on Main Street. I’d taken it off briefly while I browsed a book and grabbed a coffee across the street, and realized it was gone as I stood up to leave. It’s a slim 14k gold band with a small emerald stone set on top. The inside of the band is engraved with 'A.K. 1974' and there’s a tiny dent near the setting from a fall last winter. The emerald looks a bit lighter green in sunlight. It means a lot to me—it’s a gift from my grandmother and has sentimental value. If anyone found it, message me here and we can arrange a pickup.

Framed abstract painting with blue-gold hues

I lost my framed 11x14 abstract painting yesterday around 3pm near the Waterloo Center for the Arts on 5th Street. It’s in a white wooden frame with a tiny dent on the bottom left corner and features blue-and-gold swirls on a gray background. The back is signed "M. Kapoor" and there’s a small sticker that reads "River Pulse – Limited Run #12." It was a gift from my grandmother, so it’s very sentimental to me, and I’d be grateful to have it back. If anyone found something matching that description in the downtown Waterloo area yesterday afternoon, I’d appreciate any help locating it.

Seiko silver watch with blue dial

I'm hoping someone picked up my Seiko silver automatic watch. It’s a 38mm stainless steel case with a blue sunburst dial and a dark brown leather strap that’s a little worn from daily wear. I last had it yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on University Ave in Cedar Falls, by UNI. There’s a tiny engraving on the back that reads 'PK' and a small compass charm on the strap. It’s a graduation gift from my mom, so it means a lot to me and I’m really hoping to get it back.

6-inch Star Wars action figure in blister pack

I found a mint-condition Star Wars action figure this afternoon around 3:30 pm behind the Cedar Falls Public Library on Main Street. It's about 6 inches tall and still sealed in its original blister pack; the card back has a little corner wear and a faint crease along the top edge. The packaging is mostly black and red with the Hasbro logo visible, and the figure inside wears a dark jumpsuit with a blue cape—I can't tell the exact character without opening it. There's a small pencil initials CF sticker on the back of the card, which could help identify the owner, and I'd love to reunite it with them.

Green parakeet with blue tail

Found a small green parakeet with a bright blue tail this afternoon around 3:45pm near the Waterloo Public Library on Main Street, just outside the entrance by the bus stop. It is palm-sized, with a white ring around its neck and a tiny red leg band with the numbers CF-3. The bird is friendly, will perch on a finger for a moment, and chirps at other birds when they fly by. It seems well cared for, but clearly curious and a bit startled by people. If you have been missing a tame parakeet that matches these details, I would love to help reunite you - I can meet you around the library area in Waterloo.

Found a weathered paperback book titled 'The Alchemist' with a personal note inside at Wasson Park.

I found a paperback book titled 'The Alchemist' while walking my dog at Wasson Park in Waterloo. It's been a bit weathered but still in decent condition. There’s a personal note scribbled on the inside cover which I believe might help identify its owner. If this sounds like your book, please reach out to me.
