In total, the One Ring existed for c. 4867 years and was held by nine people, five of whom were hobbits. Sauron was by far the one to carry it for the most time (c. 1850 years), followed by Gollum (478 years), Bilbo (60 years), Frodo (17 years) and Isildur (2 years). Tom Bombadil wore the Ring temporarily on September 26, 3018 but was apparently unaffected by it. Of those who ever wore it, only Samwise Gamgee, Bilbo Baggins, Frodo Baggins and Tom Bombadil gave it up willingly. Frodo suffered both physical and psychological scars from his strenuous quest to destroy the Ring. Even dragon-fire was said to be inadequate to harm the One Ring.
