Debra McKenna lost the item in Portland when she was a student at Morse high school, the Bangor Daily News reported. She said the ring was largely forgotten until a metal detectorist found it buried under 20cm (8in) of soil in a forested Finnish park 47 years later.

The ring, which had engravings identifying the school, belonged to Ms McKenna's late husband Shawn, who she dated all throughout high school and college. The couple was married for 40 years until Shawn died in 2017 after a six-year battle with cancer.

Shawn gave Ms McKenna the ring before he left for college, but she accidentally left it in a department store.

A Finnish news organisation reported in January that Marko Saarinen, a sheet-metal worker, was using a metal detector in a park in Kaarina, a small town in south-west Finland, when he found the ring, then he noticed its inscription “Morse high school” and contacted the school’s alumni association. It identified Shawn as the owner because it also bore the 1973 graduation date and the initials “SM” .

"It's very touching in this world of negativity, to have decent people step forward and make an effort," Debra said.

Ms McKenna has no idea how the long-lost ring ended up in a Finnish forest.
