It reasons to imagine and understand that the shoreline where the cans of Gold were buried, is likely not where it was in the 1890's. It could now be under a little or a lot of water especially considering the massive snow and glacier melt that has occurred with rises in sea levels. Locating any possible markers or Lat/Long. readings of the original shoreline will likely be crucial in any adventure to locate the cans of Gold. The big problem with this other than having to snorkel or scuba dive to locate the treasure would be the high possibility that along with the rise in sea levels, that currents and wave action may have washed the cans of Gold out long ago. One might have to deploy Magnetometers from boats to possibly locate any of the treasure.

They were buried a ways from the water. So that is t a problem. The real problem is that they built a military base on top of where some of the coins have been found.

The gold was buried and then they wrecked while leaving. So it is a shipwreck and a cache. I would still think plenty of antiquity left on ship though.

Well here’s the kicker: they built a military base on top of where some of the coins have been found.

No they found some cans while they were building the military base. Just have to know exactly what they were building when they found them

I'm curious about who is really serious about this treasure and resources available to go get it.

Well it depends. I’m assuming you’ve got resources seeing as your name is “AdakIan”. So you must have some sort of connection to Adak.
