Are you asking if it's the same exact prop?

15 were made, a larger one for sauron scenes, a bigger one as a promotional advertisement, 2 for the hobbit scenes, one is on display in their shop in new zealand. Andy and elijah each got one of the rings made. There isn't anything said about the other ones. The original artisan (jens hensen) died before he got to see them in film.

On their website, the son said the following.

What has your involvement been in the recent and upcoming Hobbit films?
We are delighted to confirm that we designed and made the gold Lord of the Rings rings used as props for The One Ring, and the ring called Vilya, worn by Elrond in The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.


So I guess they made more.

15 were there made, a large one for sauron lord of all, a bigger one so all could see the glory and know fear, 2 were given to the hobbits short though they were, one rests within the homeland. One to each man, Andy and Elijah. The others faded from history. Their crafter died upon completion of his work before the world fell to ruin.

I'm pretty sure on the commentary track for lotr it says the first ring they used was one of the guys wedding band until the real pros were ready.
