Right before covid shutdown I was working with a TV show to film a 13 episode show surrounding the Hillig hunt, we spent many days down in Sullivan county researching and investigating areas for filming and their correlation to the clues. Speaking with either John Conway, Sullivan county historian or William Cogsworth ( I dont remember his title) apparently one of them or someone one close to one of them found the coin, secreted in one of Hllig's photos framed in the town historic society building or town office building...I ll dig up the story from them and share it, but I would speak with one of them in the meantime and they can collaborate that story...I am pretty sure it was one of them...We still decided to film the show and the hunt because of the history and try and unravel the hunt and if it was actually true or made up from a local in Sullivan county...During the on set and uncertainty of Covid everything was put on hold...we have spoken on and off and they would still like to resurrect the idea of the show, once the time is right.
