“Miranda Brownvile” lost her gold wedding band on Times Square and is recruiting help in finding it by offering $5,000 for the person who does locate the ring.

The ring hunt is actually a Twitter-based promotion put on by the World Gold Council. The contest kicks off on Dec. 26 with the debut in Times Square of a 15-second video billboard featuring Miranda Brownvile at 1500 Broadway, above ABC headquarters. The video will run until Jan. 1, during which time followers of Brownvile’s Twitter feed will receive clues about the location of her lost gold ring. The first person to correctly identify where the lost ring is located wins not only the cash prize but a two-day (one night) trip to New York.

For clues in finding the ring follow Brownvile through Twitter at @LostGoldRing and the World Gold Council on Facebook (Facebook.com/gold).
