Just over 5 months into an 8 month deployment. Second visit to Bahrain now and the last time we were here they wanted almost 500 US for this chest. Today it was on sale for 175 and shipping to my US address was only 35 US dollars!!! I have been wanting one for a long time and could not pass up this sale.

Picture not the best I will take more once I get home.
 

Cool pirate chest! It would take me 50years hunting everyday to fill that one up!
 

That is a Killer chest, I love it!! Looks like real wood? Like to see a close up of the detail....

mine is about 1/10th size of that one....Sent all my treasure in a few years ago, so starting over, refilling....

old pic, had a dummy bottom in it to make it look full...

OBN... False bottom or not, I'm impressed!
All with old blue?
 

Just imagine finding a real one. Just imagine. Im gonna find one damit. And im gonna drag it home. Open it up and wait whats this omg. Pulltabs. Damit Jim
 

Be careful having them mail it to you, I knew a lot of guys that got douped overseas with that "we will mail it for you" line. Myself included have been douped by it after a purchase in Turkey. If you can just carry it back with you or send it with your squadrons stuff or something, no shipping costs at all and you can keep an eye on it.

That aside, nice looking pirate chest )

Thank You, and yes with 99% with Excaliburs blues, a few with the LS, and CZ20..

You old Pirate! Arrrrrrhhhh. Now that's an impressive treasure chest!
 

That should hold a lot of pop tops lol.
Nice chest.. not as nice as Pamela Andersons but nice..
 

Craftsmanship is a work of art! What a deal! Have a safe trip home.
 

That's a terrific looking chest, Gee_mg.

Stay safe , and thank you for serving our country!:headbang:

Beautiful chest, every pirate's dream!
 

1a chset.JPG I have a few chests for finds --this one was given to me from Whydah
 

Incredible chest ! gratz ! I'd fill it entirely with coins although that'd take years lmao
 

With a chest like that, you don't need to find treasure!
Its a beaut, all by itself.
 

I have one almost identical that I sent home for the wife that I got at a bazar in Kabul! They do really nice wood work.
