The 800 gold coins date back from 1840 to 1863 and may have been buried as a result of state’s declaration of neutrality during war

I just asked about lost treasures in Kentucky,
here is what it says,

Kentucky is rich with tales of hidden treasures and mysterious legends! Here are a few intriguing ones:

1. Swift's Silver Mine: This is one of Kentucky's most famous treasure legends. John Swift, an Englishman, claimed to have discovered rich veins of silver in the Appalachian Mountains during the 1700s. He reportedly buried large amounts of silver in hidden locations, but he became blind and couldn't retrieve them. Treasure hunters have been searching for this mine for centuries.
2. Lost Confederate Gold: During the Civil War, it's said that the Confederate government hid a large sum of gold to keep it from Union forces. Rumors suggest it might be buried near the Ohio River or in caves around Louisville.
3. The Harpe Brothers' Gold: Micajah and Wiley Harpe, infamous criminals of the frontier lands, are believed to have buried stolen gold in Kentucky. The exact location remains a mystery.
4. The Great Kentucky Hoard: This is a more recent discovery—a cache of U.S. gold coins from the mid-1800s was unearthed on Kentucky farmland. It included rare coins like $20 Gold Libertys and $1 Gold Indians.
5. Daniel Boone's Hidden Caches: Daniel Boone, a legendary frontiersman, was known to navigate the Kentucky wilderness. Some legends suggest he hid valuable items, possibly gold or silver, along his routes to retrieve later.
6. Indian Burial Grounds: Kentucky has many Native American burial sites, some of which are said to hold ceremonial artifacts or treasures. However, these should always be treated with the utmost respect as cultural heritage sites.
7. Pirate Loot on the Ohio River: Kentucky's stretch of the Ohio River was once a hotspot for river pirates in the 18th and 19th centuries. Rumors abound of their buried booty hidden along the riverbanks.
8. The Bluegrass Vaults: There are whispers of mysterious underground vaults in the Bluegrass region, possibly used by early settlers or even notorious criminals, to stash away valuables.

I think if I were in Kentucky, I would focus on civil war battles. From what I'm told, the pay masters of troops would hide payrolls before a battle. So, the enemy wouldn't capture the money. A lot of these pay masters died in battle. "Hidden Treasures"

I own a property with rich civil war history between 2 know camps with I believe 2nd highest knob. The other knob recently turned to a reserve. I’ve found some stuff on it. Has caves rock formations I also tore down the building on it and played in all of em down the dirt road at the battle at the bridge on green river. There’s tomb stones in the woods and the stories are unbelievable that the old timers told me. The ky hoard is overflowing internet. A lot of people local to the state think it was staged to hide a bigger picture of natural gold here. I no many people that have found raw gold in the state including myself but everything says it’s not here but after years of research and digging there’s more then a handful of people that know it’s here. All with similar stories and odd events after there finds. A farm hand of ours even got spooked and skipped town when I was a kid living alone in the cabin. He was worried and stayed that night He strongly warned me it wasn’t safe on the 400+ acres on this dirt road and he wanted nothing to do with the land anymore and the next day he and his family were gone. Another strange thang someone approached me where I found flake but before I knew it was there and told me I’ll never see my parents again but I turned a hammer to the claw side and told the man he wasn’t going to do shhh. 15 years later same spot panning and what do u know the shinny stuff showed itself. KY is a corrupt place in the backwoods. Property next door the owners children after he lost the land came and dug well over 100 holes never finding what they were looking for but a pond dig later pulled a old car out the ground with a trunk full of guns. My lot is a little under 100 acres but the last owner my lot was just a small part of theirs. Some areas I lost access to but majority of it I’m still allowed on to do just about anything. It’s like a small town in the woods where a massacre happened. And before that some documented scalpings. Full of odd stories. It’s no longer a public road and I’m almost 100% positive they are trying to reclaim it all for a reserve but a few of us are not going to sale. Troops marched rite down the road that ran threw my property straight threw 2 green river and blew the bridge up. But I find More 3ringers and arrow heads then anything. And a broken stone axe type tool. Not many coins. But plenty of old med supply’s that was in a old storm shed with a basement. I beg people to hunt it with me I got a pos detector I’ve only used a couple times. No one to share the hobby with so I joined the net. Until I find someone I’ll hunt and learn on my own but it’s easy to just hop on the atv and get distracted old mx head by heart as my first and most lasting hobby. Sorry for the long read. I could talk about this land for days not many know it how I do they are all to old to get out and the rest passed away.

 

[KYgotGOLD]

If yall ever visit the state I’ll show u a few historic places. Worth hunting. I don’t think some has ever seen a detector.

With all due respect, there is no natural raw gold in KY. If someone has found gold here, it was placed and forgotten.

The proof is in the pan. And there is documented gold In multiple county’s in ky.

You can probably pan out a few flakes of gold in every state. Some have major deposits, some don't. The best treasure book I have is 'Oklahoma Treasures and Treasure Tales', by Steve Wilson. Mainly because I'm from there and I know the writer. It has not led me to any treasures so far, but has got me in the general area. Never loan this book out.

I’m going to have to get some books.

Steve's kinda like the authority on Oklahoma treasure tales, KYgotGOLD. He has a great book on that Texas Spider Rock thing too. In SWOK, we had a lot of treasure hunters who were just amazing on the info they had on various treasure, James Gang being a big one. I had a great uncle who would work in the fields enough to make a little money to finance his next expedition over to Devil's Canyon where he had a lead on some outlaw loot. As for me, well I stepped out of the truck today and saw a quarter lying on the ground. I'm on my way.

I suggest. there is Four main drivers for treasure being buried n Kentucky

1, Civil war the average person regardless of who they supported was like to be raided and looted by both sides in the Civil war. So many families especially prosperous buried loot. if they became casualties of the civil war? Those buried loot may remain where they was buried,

2. The 1892 banking crisis that caused many banks to collapse. It created mistrust by many farmers in the banking system who then buried their saving on their properties only to de without revealing the location.

3. Bootlegging ear many illegal distilling hooch operations may have generated hidden caches of money associate with them.

4. Small caches of money hidden when the stock market crash of 1929. The traumatized a whole nation and whole generation to hide money instead of trusting banks.

Books are fun and entertaining to read and even inspiring but the best chances are not in books but in the ones you make. Researching old maps for vanished properties and old homes steads. Old newspaper land deeds extra all can help find leads.

Many leads will fail because of Goldilocks Principe. too vague, or on property with no access or permission to search. Too a project that ticks all the boxes. Treasure does no come to you. You come to it.

Oklahoma Treasures and Treasure Tales

“Son, there's more treasure buried right here In Oklahoma than in the rest of the whole Southwest.” Those words from an old-timer launched Steve Wilson on a yearslong quest for the stones of Oklahoma’s treasures. This book is the result. It is a book of stories-some true, some legendary- about...

[KYgotGOLD]

thank you all. And the general area where I’m looking u can refer to the general Braxton braggs story. Or any of the many battles in that area.

 

[KYgotGOLD]

Achance for gold check these little items I found under where a house stood after we tore it down. Like they fell threw the floor boards I still find stuff on the surface rite there. Not as old as other stuff I find but still cool.

 

[KYgotGOLD]

Crow we tore down the house and a couple other buildings on our lot they were still full of stuff to. Wish I kept some of it now since I’m going head first in this hobby.
