any info on this?

Legends dating back to the 1880’s say that an old recluse farmer buried over $100,000 in gold and silver coins on his farm in Oley Valley. 5A). One source of information reports that this cache of recluse treasure was dug up on the old farm site and is no longer there, but the report has not been verified. 6.

The buying power of $1.00 one hundred years ago would be the same as $22.89 today.
$100,000 in 1913 (not even as far back as 1880) would be the same as $2,289,000 today.
To believe that a 'recluse farmer in Pa.' stashed the equivalent of over $2.2M+ in 1880 is beyond (even my) imagination. However, to read the recovery of this stash has not been verified, I can certainly believe.
