There have been MANY times that i thought that very thing, but then we find the next cross or marker with the next direction and distance. At this point we have discovered too much to believe that for a second. These men owned gold mines, and lived through the time of the panic of 1857. The last thing they wanted to do is turn their gold into Union greenbacks. If they couldn't coin their own gold then they would bury it for future generations. It won't be a stranger that finds the cache, by the time you study and read enough books and history to crack the codes you are as good as initiated into the K.G.C.
