unredeemed

Not yet claimed

Unredeemed describes something not redeemed—not exchanged, recovered, or saved.

An unredeemed coupon was never used; unredeemed pawned goods were never reclaimed.

In religious contexts, unredeemed souls remain unsaved.

More broadly, something unredeemed lacks any compensating quality: an unredeemed failure, a story unredeemed by wit or charm.

The word often emphasizes completeness of the negative.
