You need to find this manually, and that's the best you can go from here. :) ...

Find My is Not an Option:

A. Backtrack your Locations:

Do it the olde fashioned way and backtrack your locations. For instance, if you were at a retail store, then stop in, asking the store manger if it was placed aside.

B. Lost-&-Found:

Chick with the Lost & Found department of the facility you were in, seeing if it has been handed over.

C. Contact Local Authorities:

See if the community police, or local security guards at the front door, can across it.

D. Use Craigslist:

Put a post on Craigslist, seeing if they have been found.

E. Go Here: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is Lost or Stolen - Apple Support

Secure your Account:

Practically, there is no way to know where something is, until is found. So, was a passcode assigned to this? If so, then it's likely locked, and you'll never find it. If not, then someone has access to your info. Whether or not they do is anybody's guess. So, after everything being said, secure your account, start with a new password. See my above reply.

Thank you for the screenshot.

About iPhone Power Off:

If you have a passcode, then it would easily be locked out, unless guessed. But, as long as there it can power on, then it will power off too.

Hunt this Down and Secure your Account:

No one can disable Face ID, but you --the user form your account. So, hunt this down, and secure your account, in the mean while.

Troubleshooting Unrecognized Credentials:

I. Get the Phone Number Changed:

Contact Apple Support:

Ask the Apple Rep to modify it over the phone. If permitted to do so, then inform to modify the Phone Number associated to your Apple Account, to what it should be. Important: Perform a Trial & Error login session with the Apple Rep prior to ending the phone call.

Apple Support Contact Us Info:

• Why the Wait: Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due to lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)
