I don’t have such a ring, and probably never will, but I would think such a ring is meant to be stored in a box and left at home vs in everyday life. I could be wrong about that. I never even wanted to wear my rings from high school or college graduations. Yet I lost them anyway.
I’m guessing the guy who found the ring was hoping for a different reward other than a book of sports related drawings. Oh well. Not all former Olympians are monied up.
You can’t pick-up hot chicks with an Olympic ring that’s home in a box,
In a related story, Sauron, a visitor from the Black Lands, was thrilled when he was reunited with a ring that he thought had been lost forever when it fell into the river Anduin at the end of the Second Age. Said the lucky Dark Lord, “ I thought I would ever see it again. It really is precious to me.” He gave a handsome reward to the honest finder of the One Ring, one Déagol, halfling from the river lands.
I’d wear it.
he flew back to get the ring.
There is a network of metal detector users devoted solely to helping people find lost items.
They take no payment, and often travel great distances, purely for the satisfaction of helping.
Last year, one came from northern VA just to help me locate my Wonder Dobe’s grave, buried 34 years on my mom’s property, so I could bring home with me what we were able to find of him, in case she sells her house.
It was priceless to me and he took home nothing but my grateful tears and a heartfelt hug.
Several others also offered help but he was the one who got there, first.
There are still good people.
Seems like wearing it would be the way to go - of course none of my furniture has the clear plastic protective crap on it either.....
