If it has no identifiable information the police won’t be able to return it.
Like someone else said, the best way to get it back to its owner is to set up signs saying that you’ve found “something” and that if someone has lost anything in the park around certain date to contact you.
If after a few weeks you haven’t found the owner just let the kid pocket it.

I was about to say the same thing until I thought “well, what if the person who lost it actually goes to the police seeing if it was found?”
It wouldn’t be too uncommon if it’s a small town for there to be a lost and found thing there. The small town I grew up in had one.

I am 99% certain the police would just say the cash was probably going to be used for drugs and then they would just take it themselves.
