It's my treat
About 15 years ago, I wrote for pretty much all of the treasure magazines. I did an article trying to promote hunters to give back some of what they find to the hobby. I covered over a small cache I made with about ten inches of beach sand and made it water tight in plastic and a metal Sucrets box. I included a card with my name and phone number asking the finder to let me know when it was discovered, and I put some clues in the article. It wasn't a big deal, some wheaties, a silver dime, buffalo nickel, and whatever else I can't recall. The idea was to have some fun.
Well, here it is at least fifteen years later, and nobody has called me. So to be more specific, the cache is in Quincy Massachusetts on Wollaston Beach, in the high dry sand between Wollaston and Squantumn Yacht clubs... closer to Wollaston. There's only about 100 yards between their two cat walks. It is no more than 30 feet from the cement wall, and is not very close to the wall because the steel girders disrupt the signals.
So, anyone from the area, there's a little something to look for. Good luck, have fun, and give back some of what you find for others.
Merry Christmas.
