Just how much is that, really?

Laid end to end, the bills would stretch over 41,0000 feet!

Now. If the TX man won that all in one chunk, the taxes have already been withheld.
But. If he won it in several sittings, he now has a tax consequence — and a conscience consequence if he does not reward the upstanding finder with at least $1K.
But, what a generous gesture by the finder!

The man told the television station he won the money gambling and dropped it while running to catch a flight.

The IRS will be watching this $10,000 "event."

He should get a $1,0000 reward for returning the money.
