What makes you think there is a 400 oz bar at least 6' down?...
Especially since no metal detectors even existed when these treasures were buried. Out of site would be plenty deep and a whole lot easier to retrieve later.
666, sure , you're not fishing for investors like the stories you chalk us BS and thievery scams. Granted. But so-too do a lot of the stories of treasures there likewise also not have investment schemes involved. There's no shortage of sincere people, like you, who truly believe to 100% they've "found a treasure". And , like you, are not scams, are not seeking investors, etc... Yet "sincerity" does not equate necessarily to meaning "it's truly there". There's lots of sincere people who are chasing stories that simply are not there.
Or perhaps Tom just doesn't want anyone else looking for treasure.
hmmmmmmmmmm.......
