Agree. Also, the one time I found a 50€ bill on the ground it was at a busy train station, so my guess is the evidence actually goes the other way around (you have many people coming through, all of whom are paying uniquely little attention to their surroundings, and so the aggregate likelihood of someone dropping a $100 bill and no one noticing before you do, is higher).

In this scenario, are you not also also paying uniquely little attention to your surroundings (and thus equally less likely to spot the bill)?
It feels a little like begging the question to apply that modifier to other people in the scenario, but not yourself.
Yeah I think the only thing that really matters is the frequency with which bills are dropped, and train stations seem like high-frequency places.
