unlost
Not mislaid anywhere
Unlost describes something that has not been lost, or more often, something that has been found or recovered after being missing.
The word typically emphasizes the positive outcome: The unlost keys turned up in my coat pocket.
It can also describe something that remains intact or preserved: an unlost innocence, unlost opportunities.
