Great story , i have a simalar story. I worked at a junk yard in boston back in the 80s . I was walking to coffee break when i noticed a gold object stuck in the roadway dug it out and low and behold it was a class ring from MIT class of 60 something . I held onto it ended up in a change glass and eventually into a drawer . About 6 years ago i came across the ring and took the initials on line to MIT alum. I found the guys name and looked it up in phone book there was ten people with same name and started calling on the 3rd call i reached him . He thought it was a joke until i explained how i found it . It was about 20 years since he had seen it . We figure he either lost it in an old car or a washer and dryer that was junked .
