A little better around the area of your gps coordinates. One of the turquoise outline circles, might be the site. The little crosshairs + near them, the gps location.

Vince, your new map location. On both maps the black circles near the gps coordinates. All the rest of the hits, same as before.


White in general is a color indicator, I use for natural caves or man made tunnel entrances and mine shafts, other similar type excavations (including old wells, tombs, etc.).
Red circle is to mark areas, of loose or surface coins/treasure and artifacts of value, down to 1-2 feet deep.
Red line box (or solid filled circles) for very deep coins/treasure or artifacts of value.
Green in general is a color indicator, I use for various other targets mostly archaeological (old ruins or foundations but especially those non-metallic objects such as Indian flints, glass, pottery, carved stone with treasure signs).

Thanks Red. This week will be raining but I will discuss the map with my friends. I will let you know if I have any news. :-)

Hi Red. May I ask if it would be possible for you to locate only the tunnel or better the entrance please?

Well, check around the area of the white line boxes, also any of these white Xs would be the possibility of an entrance or cave/tunnel.

Red,
Does this indicator of yours represent an ancient Roman billiard hall, or just the "8" ball?

P.S. Awesome work finding those coins, you guys! Following this thread very closely.

I see your point, but not intentional. I was trying to narrow down the signal where the large turquoise circle is put. The smaller circle inside to pinpoint it better, only needed the 2nd tiny circle because probably is between them. Since concentric metal detector coils are round, marking a pinpoint this way might be too confusing......oh well, if I don't forget probably, will avoid doing it now in the future.

The tunnel is supposed to contain a cache of books, highly unusual type of search. Did the searching expecting them to be made of paper (as modern books are today). Turquoise is a color I've hardly ever used on the forum to mark caches and only when they are paper currency. Of course, depending on the type and how old these books/writings are believed to be, could be written on animal skins, clay tablets, or even copper scrolls. From my file of definitions for colors used to mark hits, turquoise came the closest.

Turquoise (or aqua blue) circles for paper currency, usually hidden in the ground as a cache.

Try here, whether it is your tunnel or not, keep getting a signal at this spot.
