Sounds fishy... he knows where the two chests are buried, but needs a company and $10K to go find it.

In 1893, Gold was around $19 a troy ounce, so $1M in Gold would be 52,632 troy ounces or 3,609 pounds. Must have been some big chests!

probably exaggerated values on the coins and jewels, because of their age and treasure value.

some people think a coin from the 1715 Treasure Fleet is worth more then
the same exact type of coin found in a collectors album
and of course many fall for it, till it's time to sell it to a gold buyer and he throws it on a scale

You all can go ahead and cross that lead off your list.....I already found those chests....in my dreams. Seriously, I bet there are lots of finds like this still out there, they just haven't found me yet.
