No... but I do think it was the ring that the Giant took from Cooper in the
second season premiere and gave it back when Coop figured out that Leland
was BOB's vessel.

Well, Annie wore it and she's not dead.  Doubt if it's that simple.

That seems like a very strong possibility.  After all, BOB has been

to the lives of the townspeople.  It could be that the Cooper family had
ties to Twin Peaks several generations back, and only now are the elements
all coming together.
