A COUPLE TREASURE LEADS
I have been too busy to do any detecting. In the few free minutes I have, I have been looking through old papers for some leads. There are a lot of stories, but most are ambiguous. Also, some stories are about money found. I always heard where there is one, there is usually two. Remember old Stu if you find any treasure from the stories.

Stu, send me all the good ones you find for Kentucky. I'll share with you.

I was impressed with your clippings, Stu. Your scans were detailed enough that I was able to read at least 95% of the copy. I have suggested a friend from TX to read your clippings. If he finds anything from that area, I suspect you will receive an anonymous gift box in the mail sometime. Depending on what is inside the box, you should be able to tell if anything was found.<G>
I find that clippings that include photos or information about found items are most helpful. And many of yours are certainly informative. I also like the time-frame you have selected to search: more likely to yield valuables if clippings taken before metal detectors commonly in use: about 1955 onward for my area, but Oregon has a lot of metal detector manufacturers here.

Re: A COUPLE TREASURE LEADS
Here are a few more. Glad you guys enjoyed them. I tried to find some in your respective areas, but could not. My favorite is the one from Prairie Du Chien. It is within driving distance. But, I just don't have the time. I got a good feeling about there being something there. Lastly, remember old Stu if you guys find anything from the stories. Check back, I will add some more when I get a little time

EXCELLENT!
I especially enjoyed the kettle of Spanish coins dated 1781 to 1851, found in Rhode Island, and described as "pirate treasure."<G>
I do wonder who buried the cache, though.

I am wondering who dig up these treasures.
