Those Flash Drives are very durable and difficult to break physically..(IMO)
You can’t recover it. Try to remember which machine you used while saving the files.. That machine might have the files.

did you ever do a back up on a external drive?

The Drive may have lost its driver head. Or The imprint of the drive. It needs to read this before it can be accessed this means you may have to boot from disk warrior an effective data recovery tool for mac. Its then easier to intercept data, even from physically damaged drives
sorry if this was no help
