It looks like the wedding band found in the River Lee by an angler could end up being auctioned for charity after all.
Ten days after the ring was found by angler Pat O’Flaherty at Carrigrohane in County Cork, nobody has come forward to claim ownership.
Mr O’Flaherty, from Glasheen in Cork City, was offered €1,000 for the "River Lee ring" by wedding planning website weddingface.com, which said it would auction it for charity if the owner wasn’t traced.
Pat was fishing when he spotted something bobbing in the water and used his net to retrieve the red box, which had a gold wedding band inside. The ring has been valued at over €400.
The ring has a distinctive inscription and anyone with information can email eoin.english@examiner.ie
