IDK about you, but I'd be seriously suspicious of any ring that would allow itself to be 'found' after that amount of time:

I guess it's possible but I'm surprised it wasn't buried under silt or something.

It probably was buried, until it decided the time was right for it to be found.

That's not the first time I heard that story in many years. I recall a ring being found in a fish after decades and returned to the owner. I'm leaning to it being recycled again. Cute story but an urbane legend in my book.
