Hoghead515 Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 (edited) What do you all think? Do you think the FBI took the gold from the treasure hunters? It wouldnt suprise me if they did. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.wearecentralpa.com/news/local-news/treasure-hunters-did-fbi-destroy-video-of-civil-war-gold/amp/&ved=2ahUKEwifv5PqrfX2AhXjD0QIHds2AckQFnoECDcQAQ&usg=AOvVaw1gmeTGEhDXsL_Y4KJAIzKo Edited April 2, 2022 by Hoghead515 GoldFinger1969 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoghead515 Posted April 2, 2022 Author Share Posted April 2, 2022 That would be the only bad thing about finding a large treasure. The government would take it away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldFinger1969 Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 I'm fascinated by hoards. Have done lots of reading and research on Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle hoards, not as much on earlier Liberty DE hoards which would cover the Civil War.

RWB Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Objectivity is present -- just not in this type of "drama" and bias. It requires patience and expertise to find the truth. GoldFinger1969 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex in PA. Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 the FBI's dig for Civil War-era gold in Dents Run, Pa. Actually, it's buried in my back yard. Civil War buried gold!

They have been roaming the Hyner Mountain areas for decades looking for the 'Lost Prussian Castle" built on a high mountain top in Clinton County centuries ago. Believe Lafayette slept there.

What Im trying to understand. Is if they were taking it to the Philly mint, if I read it right, why would they go through the trouble to bury it if they were already up there close to it? I may have read it wrong. Sometimes I have to read something 3 or 4 times to get it to sink in.

RWB Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 This in the "Big Foot" and "Yeti" category of nonsense. Add some critical thinking and the "mystery" vanishes. Alex in PA. and Hoghead515 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out he is Andre The Giant and is controlled by a super-race of aliens..... Oh wait, sorry....that was an episode of "The Six Million Dollar Man" from 1976 !!

USAuPzlBxBob Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Looked for Forest Fenn's treasure, August 2017. Didn't find it after looking for 15-minutes out around the Lander - Riverton area of Wyoming, and this after driving up from Santa Fe. Feeling silly there, alongside the East - West highway, so roughed in the polar alignment of the Questar 3.5" by dead reckoning, and just before noon turned on the clock drive. Then, to take things really off the hook, removed the solar filter and stared directly at the sun… so did my brother-in-law, too. After that it was, "Slow down! I see spots! The lines on the road just look like dots." Hoghead515 and Moxie15 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
