Research finally paid off. I was browsing some old, obscure city maps that I picked up at a used book store and was shocked and excited to find an old sports field that was abandoned around 1960. Since then it has been naturalized and overgrown. You would never suspect that it was once a sports field! Limited spots to swing (due to high perennial vegetation) yielded this beautiful c.1940 22k men's wedding band with diamonds, an old Washington State seal medal with remnant gold plate, a child's ring, and some wheats. My buddy found a Merc, an old key, some interesting relics, and some wheats. This is an old virgin sports field! Do your homework, guys and gals! HH
