I for one happen to be fortunate enough to live within 45 minutes driving distance from Bedford. I've read about this so called Daniel Cole finding the Beale Treasure location. I think the whole site is obviously a hoax. The pictures look old for one, and why did the guy never post his decipher material? Also, why wait until the man dies to erect a site in his honor claiming that he solved the mystery? The relics found look like what anyone would throw in from a hunt on an old civil war site. God knows I have found plenty of Iron myself with my detector. Any thoughts on this subject? I know it's been posted in several places on the internet. But I thought it should be worth mentioning again.
