Can you claim for a lost ring?
Lost rings and valuable personal items may be covered under home insurance, but standard coverage limits can be low. To be sure your valuables have the coverage you want, have them professionally appraised and find out about insurance options. A “floater” endorsement can extend coverage limits beyond the base coverage.
What to do when you lost expensive jewelry?
- File a police report.
- Retrace your steps.
- Contact local jewelers and pawn shops.
- Post a "lost ad" online.
- Track Craigslist, eBay and local buy/sell/trade pages on Facebook.
- Post reward flyers around the area you lost it.
- If insured, file a claim.

Can you get a new ring if you lost it?
Call the jeweler where you got the ring as soon as you can. It's possible they might have another one in the same style, or they can re-create a similar ring for you.
What are the chances of finding a lost ring?
“One in a billion.”
What to do if I found a ring?
Close the ring box immediately and put the ring back exactly where you found it. There's no need to let your partner know you've found the engagement ring, and the longer you look at it, the higher the chance you'll get caught red-handed.
What happens when you lose your engagement ring?
Be sure to check all of your insurance policies to see if they cover lost engagement rings. Depending on your insurance, you will either receive cash or your insurance company will provide payment to a jeweler for a replacement ring. The replacement engagement ring will be similar in cost to the ring you lost.
