Description
I found a silver-tone ring this afternoon around 3:20 PM in the parking lot behind the Walmart on West Main Street in Mount Sterling, KY. It's a slender ring with a small oval blue stone bezel-set at the top, and there's a tiny engraved initials 'N.P.' on the inner edge. The ring is in good condition, with just a light scuff along the outside of the band from wear. I know rings like this can be sentimental, so I wanted to post it here to help reunite it with its owner. If you think it might be yours, describe the initials and the stone, and I'll get it back to you.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
