OK... this is good. Make it so that it never becomes a possible problem.
But, it still is something that can be stolen. I mean, that's the problem with rings of power... they're always being inconveniently hacked off of one's finger.
Does it need to be a ring? Perhaps make it something that wouldn't be out there, waving at the end of a arm, just inviting trouble.
Perhaps Sauron could have forged it into a tongue stud (Eww...), that way, they'd have to take off his entire head and then he'd be dead anyways and the ring...er... stud wouldn't be of any more use to him.
Or... make it into a bellybutton ring (Eww! Eww! Eww! Ewww! Ewwww!!!). Be the Lord of All Evil and a fashion trendsetter at the same time.
