The Amount of a Small Sum in a Lost Item

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: As for small items whose owner is unknown, what is their current value? For example, if one finds fifty riyals, does that count as a small sum? I do not know.

Answer:
No, fifty is a lot; that is a large amount. A small sum is like a dirham or less than a dirham, a dirham and a qirsh, or something similar to that.
