Found on a bus a folded banknote with a pen placed on it — must it be returned?

Question

Found on a bus a folded banknote with a pen placed on it — must it be returned?

Answer

This is considered an identifying sign, and one must announce it. He should announce it through the national lost-and-found gemach, and if no one contacts him within a week,
he may use it, but he should record the details.
