My memory isn't the best, but I don't recall her going back to the beach with Jack, she stayed with Locke, right? If I'm missing something, then I apologize. But, still, I don't think she found the ring either way or else they would have shown us that. And, as many other times in Lost, they usually make distant connections with little details across different seasons, so we'll probably see the ring again for some reason (: I wrote what I remembered regarding the last time I saw Charlie’s ring.

Isn't she present at some point while Hurley is doing a cannonball? Doesn’t she return to the beach later with Jack while awaiting the helicopter to return?

Rings connect people, so Jin's ring was supposed to re-connect him with Sun. (: I can't think of little Charlie Hume being anyone else but little Charlie Hume, but it would be really sweet if he was and passed it on to future generations. Andre, Aaron never got the ring, because when Claire (or someone else, don't remember) picked him up to leave the camp, the ring was left in the craddle, since she didn't notice it or even knew Charlie had given it to Aaron . So, I assume the ring is still somewhere around the island. Good thoughts.

Great post. Great pickup about the deeper meanings of the rings. The whole idea of rings is that of symbolic union. A group (or school) ring. An engagement ring followed by a wedding ring to seal the deal. The family crest (DS for Dexter Stratton) that is passed on from father to son. Yes I think you are on to something important. Starting at the end of season 3 the writers have been including ring symbolism in Lost. Every action Charlie poses after Desmond saves him from his initial fated death has some small consequence. The ring probably has a more symbolic meaning, but the Charlie-Aaron relationship has become one of filial kinship after that gift. Odd that we never see young or baby Aaron with that ring again. Maybe Kate has it and will give it to Aaron at some future date. Or did Claire find it and guess its importance? I'll be looking foreward to seeing how that plays out. Hello Stephanie!
