Hello Rabbi!
2 questions regarding the lost Sabbath.
1. Can an amount of money constitute a sign? For example, a 200 NIS bill.
2. Is it a loss that has no sign of it and the owners are not giving up or do I have information that they are searching for the loss? What is the ruling? Is it obligatory to return it?

  1. The Gemara and the Poskim believe that it is not. But when it comes to location, it is different.
  2. From the point of view of the law, I think not. Their opinion is invalid. This can be likened to a sea urchin, for even if the owner screams, there is no obligation to respond to him. Although morally, before the Shofar, all the poskim (and already in the Talmud itself) wrote that it is certainly right to respond.
