its current whereabouts are (appropriately enough) unclear.
The ring’s present location is publicly documented, not unknown.
Full reasoning
The National Trust’s collections catalog lists the object online as “Ring of Senicianus” and places it in The Vyne Estate, Hampshire with inventory number NT 719789. In other words, the ring’s present institutional location is documented rather than “unclear.”
The article is right that the ring was exhibited in a Tolkien-themed display in 2013, but its current whereabouts are not a mystery: the National Trust still catalogs it as part of The Vyne collection.

Collection Vyne Estate, Hampshire NT 719789 ... The ring was later acquired by the Chute family, who owned The Vyne, a Tudor mansion nearby.
his weapon is the Twilight Sword
The Twilight Sword is Surtur’s weapon, not Silver Surfer’s.
Full reasoning
Marvel’s own materials identify Twilight as Surtur’s sword. By contrast, Marvel’s guide to Silver Surfer describes Norrin Radd as traveling on his signature surfboard-like craft. Silver Surfer has used his board in various ways over the years, and some later stories temporarily turn the board into a sword-like weapon, but the Twilight Sword itself is not his weapon.
So the article incorrectly attributes Surtur’s weapon to Silver Surfer.

Radd remained stuck on the planet for a great deal of time, but managed to get out ... if not on his board.
