I don't pick up anything lying on the road. I don't know why. No reason whatsoever but I have seen wallets and money lying on the road loads of time but I just don't. :)
I still remember when I was a kid, while playing in a garden I found some ancient coins but I was too scared to take them as I knew that after redevelopment that garden was built on a graveyard.
