Being I live close to El Paso, I would fear for my safety.

Casca hit the nail on the head. No way would I go to Mexico with 10k detector and be led into the desert to search for treasure. Sorry, but this deal makes me nervous.

fair enuf...I apologise

I have friends qo hunt in Mexico. They find great stuff. You wont see them posting on here. I get invites all the time. You just need to know the rules and speak the lingo. Just know the dangers folks. I would love yo go to Mexico for a treasure hunt, and have a offer on the table besides this one. Just waiting for back to heal and getting funds. The spanish trails go from Sante fe, to Mexico City and beyond. HH

Ok,I'm marking this thread, so I can see all the gold bars & coins posted later.

 

[Tom_in_CA]

Ok, I'll be like bigfoot and apologize too. Just suffice it to say that certain cultures for some reason, tend to be more steeped in any tale of treasure they get told. Guess we can say something like that, but not mention the individual name of any country.

 

[FreeBirdTim]

I just don't like the premise. It has nothing to do with any particular country. Bring your 10k detector and we'll go hunt for treasure in the desert (or in the woods or in the mountains). When we find gold, we'll split the profits! All I can think of is the storyline from "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre".

 

[FreeBirdTim]

And why hasn't anyone asked the OP how he's "97% sure" he knows where the gold is? I think that would be my first question to ask if I were getting into this deal.

it comes down to never , Ever accuse a member of anything ,
or even hint that a member is not as honest as you.

the warning on authenticity still applies with a little rearrangement of wording.

Gold72, how can you be "97%" sure where any gold is? Just a simple question and not an attack on your honesty.

Maybe you could use a probe. Such as these Schlatter's Inc. ~ Intelligent Water Management

Good luck.[/QUOiv never used them do they work good??

Jason, can I save you a ton of time ? Mexico superstition lore is jam-packed with "sure-fire-treasures" everywhere. Everyone down there is certain that treasures most certainly lurk in every cave, ruin, etc.... Conquistadors, pancho villa, blah blah blah . And they're all silly embellished legend.

Where I live in central coast CA, is lots of agriculture. As a result, a lot of emigrant labor comes here for jobs. So I have met scores of folks born there, and moved up here. And ... yup .... they've all got treasure stories like yours "if only we had a metal detector that could detect 2 to 3 meters deep!".

At first I was always spell-bound by the stories. Each one packed with "iron-clad proof". So eventually I joined up with an employee friend , who took me deep into the mountains of the Sierra madres. Little mountain towns that were 300+ years old , where the Spanish had mined gold. People living in old adobe homes that were hundreds of years old. Churches from the 1700 & 1800s, etc... But when we got there, and I started inquiring more deeply about the treasure leads we were there to pursue, turns out they all fall apart. They were all of the sort like "he said that she said that they saw, that he said, that ....... ", well, you get the picture. Supposed treasures that were found already, when you went to try to interview the person, well .... it turns out they didn't exactly see it themselves, but they knew the person who did. So you go to try to track down THAT person. And ... well , it turns out they too didn't exactly see the treasure. But they knew someone else who did! And so on and so forth, till you finally realize THERE WAS NO TREASURE. Yet when it gets told over and over, before you know it, it's "200 bars of gold" blah blah blah

So I have come to conclude that all the mexican treasure lore, is of the same sort as the Philippine yamashito type stuff. Fun campfire stories, but total bologna. I know you won't believe what I'm telling you, because the lore is that deep. But ... I tried.

no i completly agree ther r so many storys and iv chased a lot of them 2 the same place no where he said she said i get where u r coming from but the history is there and so is the treasure where im talkin about they hav pulled out 3 allready that i no of and 1 thing that helps a lot is living here i no ppl that have seen gas fire come out of the ground. Ok short verson so u can get an idea. There was this mining town 2 sweet mines the records show they took a lot of gold bars 2 Alamos 2 b changed in 2 coinsso we no the mines were prodective the indians came in killing every body the town fought them off this happened 3 time till the rest gave up and left when a bounch of the ppl left i no where the put up home lots of places gas fire comes out of the ground after wat happened u no they burried there gold..so i understand where u r coming from it can b exausting over whellming but i beleve there is some out there my not b much but some ..wish u the best of luck God Bless

PS: After hunting for 3 weeks at various Chihuahua desert and Sierra Madre locations, we did find individual coins as far back as the mid 1800's. But no caches.

If you really want to pursue it, get yourself a two-box Whites TM 808 detector. It won't find objects smaller than a soda can. Thus the perfect discriminator for all the pesky coin, nail, pulltab, etc... sized stuff. Since you're only looking for "big game" anyhow.[/Cool good find ok i hav a ? im getting a Descovery treasure findre 99 two box can u give me any imfo on it?

My F75 dropped 30 feet into a bush, got ya on depth lol.

Sounds like a great trip. Being I live close to El Paso, I would fear for my safety. I am definitely not driving my truck into Mexico, but would love to hear some of the stories and why you think there is gold coins there that no one else has got? The equipment you are looking for is not cheap, and I dont have access to any of it. I have helped others in Mexico via email. You dont need any expensive equipment. I would have to think on this ome. Its not that I dont believe you, just dont want to end up in a wooden box held hostage while you send body parts to my family asking for money.

Ok i hav 2 admit that made me laugh but bcause i complitly understand .u no mexico isant near as bad as ppl think think of it like NY there r streets we just dont go down here it;s the same..if iu do ever decide 2 come i will help u from 1 brother 2 another u hav my word nothing will happen that ur mama dont want 2 happen ..um just 4 that reason $ the detector i need is more expinsive than i can come up with and the ppl that live in this particular town dont hav it eather. tks 4 the commit best of luck God Bless
