Signal Line: Salvor 6, and Aquanut, are professional salvors. The Pulse star is a part of their metal detector arsenal. Thanks for good advice. Dell

Yeah, the two-meter square coil is huge.

Dell,

Thank you for the concise details. I really appreciate your words of wisdom, clearly coming from years of personal experiences. I enjoy reading ALL of your posts, because you are so REAL and down-to-earth. THANK YOU for all of your insights and contributions here at T-Net!!

My personal assessment.

The logistics of getting to the sites marked can be daunting. Only 1-3 feet of water in the waterway near the house & railroad bridge. The house is private property with a locked gate. No one lives there. Permission would have to be obtained to enter. I had permission for 2 hours then we had to leave. Most of the area is marshland and is a National wildlife refuge with no trespassing penalty signs posted. An air boat might be an option, but I doubt if it would be allowed. If caught, Treasure Hunters could face confiscation of vehicles and equipment, heavy fines, legal fees, and, or, prison.

Dowsers need to consider that the small squares marking your treasure location on the Google Earth photo, that when zoomed in cover a lot of territory to search. Too much for a metal detector in difficult terrain, hot sun, lightning storms, snakes and Mosquitoes. We need to be more specific in our locations if we are to be helpful. Thanks!

Jeff, I am afraid your sarcastic remarks only reflect your ignorance of the problems and expense Treasure Hunter/Salvors face when attempting any search and recovery project. We come to these forum seeking and sharing information and knowledge. I'm sorry you don't respect that.

Nearly the size of a garage door.

That is absolutely true, but only if a person is good at dowsing either short range or long range on site.

morbiusandneo, Your kind words are greatly appreciated. Thank You!

Look at the Google Earth image I posted. There are no roads there. It is all wooded area and swamp.

Jeff like I said there are others that replied to me with a PM. There is more than one site to check out. One guy said it is 15' deep. No, we will not be using sunscreen but we will use Deep Woods Off!

15 feet ? ehhhh so someone used a backhoe to "hide" a treasure they were coming back for ?

I personally would disregard this depth estimate as hogwash... Ever dug a five foot deep hole ? let alone a 15 foot deep one. > HEH.

Besides IMO... In this area you would hit water before that depth perhaps....
Besides the fact that 15 feet would have been completely unrealistic and unnecessary.
ESPECAIALLY if planning to retrieve said gold in any timely way / fashion.

ARC's general "rule of thumb" when it comes to finding things that others have buried...
Put yourself in the shoes of the person(s) who buried it.

AARC, Perhaps you have never used Ground Penetrating Radar, EM, Magnetometer, Ground Resistivity, or other imaging devices in your searches and viewed the strata layers, or you would realize that 15 feet is not an unreasonable depth for large Treasure troves. Natural and man made changes have a way of concealing, or revealing the past. Yes , the water table in Florida has risen dramatically since the 1800's, along with an average overburden of 5 feet of soil, and a high water table does place many Treasures in Florida out of reach. Have you tried to metal detect and recover a coin in a flooded yard in Louisiana now covered by 5 feet of water? Think about it.

Perhaps the Treasure was placed in a well, or pot hole to hide it that has since filled in? Your logic sounds good for the present, but it does not apply to the past. Dell

 

[weregolf]

Looks alligators are rich there
Many treasures there, 8 to 10
No!! i will not post them ..very dangerous

Good luck in your quests

 

[Dell Winders]

In my opinion, you are correct. What is the danger in posting? Dell

 

[Dell Winders]

We live in Florida. I have Gators in my back yard. Aquanut, & Salvor 6, dive with big Sharks, Barracuda, and Moray Eeel's, all the time. Heck, I've even wrestled Crocodiles. Professional Treasure Hunters work in all kinds of conditions. We appreciate your concern. Dell

Talk, talk, talk and more talk and no results. Fifteen feet is ridiculous. Ever think the ones who buried this stuff might have said 15 feet to discourage treasure hunters from trying to dig it up?

 

[Dell Winders]

Unfortunately, I have rarely seen any research where the person burying a Treasure has been available to tell me where , and how deep they buried the Treasure.

What results are you talking about? It was a Dowser on this forum that gave that depth for the location they provided. Do you think the Dowser purposely misled Salvor 6, so they could go to the site and dig the Treasure for themselves? Is this what you would do? If that was the intention, why bother to even give the site location?

You are right, the majority of small Treasure Troves were not buried deep. But, depending on the environment, overburden builds up, the water table rises, and sand turns to quick sand, and the Treasure sinks deeper and deeper over time. Add, floods, Earthquakes, land slides, Dust Bowl, etc, you best be prepared to dig deeper than the Treasure was originally buried. I know from lots of experience. Dell

Not sure if this is what you want, but kept getting a signal at the red which was a little higher up from Art's hit. Then something entirely different at the green.

I think once a metal box with treasure was found by men digging a well, around Key West at a depth of 14-15 ft. Also I've got 2 coins a 2 & 8 Reales from a chest found exactly 15 ft deep in New Orleans (during hotel construction). You don't hear much about deep chests being found because hardly any detectors can go deep enough and they walk right over the treasure.

Red, no like appears on your post, but consider it done.

Red, no like appears on your post, but consider it done.

I think it should be right on top of where signature starts.
