I would also go to the lost-and-found, tell them about it and give them my contact details.
If someone claims it they can then pass on that info.
I don't have a lot of faith in the lost-and-found boxes since I just think how tempted I would be working in a place like that and having all kinds of cool gadgets around me but getting minimum wage ...
Not saying everyone's a thief. But isn't there a saying that goes something like "opportunity makes thieves"?
That said, I have gotten my wallet back on two occasions, including the money. Once I left it at a highway gas station and once I dropped it in a cinema and the cleaning crew gave it to the ticketing booth.
The only thing I kept was a €100 bill that was lying on the sidewalk with NOBODY around. No kidding. It was heaven-sent, actually, since I was on my last couple of euros and was thinking of how I could stretch those to make a nice evening meal.
All the other stuff I found I either gave to some lost-and-found area (where I got a good look at those people and they did not really seem like the most trustworthy) and I have contacted people using info in wallets or cellphones.
