The finding a chip in the casino example is even better than mine of finding it on the floor. Technically it belongs to the casino -- so you'd be "stealing" if you didn't pick up the pick and return it to the cashier's cage. I would pick it up and put it in my pocket right away no doubt about it.
NOW, if a stranger was walking in front of me and I saw him drop the chip, that's a different story... however the example of this $500 is exactly the same as the first example above, which is why there is no doubt about I'd keep it and not think for a second otherwise
