2X I have found a locking lug key in the road, or close to it. Both times it was mine as it tends to stick on the nut and I miss it. then I drive and ts gone.
First time I walked miles looking for it. It turned out to be 3 blocks away (with 2 right turns) in a crosswalk.
Second time I found it near the corner of a park I had not driven near, I'm guessing a kid found it, picked it up, played with it on the way home, and dropped it when they got bored. I found it on my morning walk (that includes a loop around the park) days later...
I've painted that sucker Chevy engine
