For those that don't know - the HMS Edinburgh was sank in 1942 by the Germans. 58 British lives were lost, and also 465 bars of Russian gold. Reports on the weight of each bar have differed, some indicating 7 pounds, some say 13 pounds, but most sources agree that each bar was 23 pounds. That's...
This may be difficult to believe, but my cofounder and I have found a way around the UNESCO accords and have built strong 'top down' relationships with multiple countries in the Caribbean and Latin America.
We are creating a TV show about real life treasure hunting. We've been working on this...
And here I am again. Have a nice day and good mood everyone.
I don't know about you, but I already miss my treasure map.
I remember in the previous topic I touched upon the simplest symbol, the sun. But I simply did not take into account that perhaps many did not understand the simplest element...
Hello,, pretty new to the mining industry but loving it so far!
I just acquired an old compass gold scanner pro. Does anyone have a video or anything on how to use this thing properly? It seems to come on and work, but I can't hear anything with the headset. It has new batteries as well.
I...
Within a couple of days of discovering this forum, my trusty AT Gold helped my rescue this beautiful ring from a fresh water lake. Someone else's bad luck, or disillusionment with what the ring stood for, turned into good luck for me and my wife. I did search via the internet for an owner, but I...
Hello I'm Ryan, I'm based in Perth, Western Australia and looking to join treasure hunting/gold detecting communities online either via this platform/facebook/youtube/instagram etc.
I'm 27 and have a interest in Australian mining industry and I was born on the east side of Australia in Coffs...
Hey all! I've been lurking around the site for years and after many days in the fields I've finally found a location that isn't under a current claim.
I can competently fill and file the paperwork for staking a claim, my issue is with posting the claim markers accurately and the process of...
Found this silver spoon that I almost passed up...on second thought decided to look up what 835 means...just in case. (I only knew the 925 mark). Learned something new today!! Nice.
I have always been interested in the last gold that is said to be between Newgate prison and the Salmon Brook in East Granby, Connecticut. This is always just been a side hobby and interest to me but a recent finding that I have made has peaked my interest into an obsession. I am looking to...
Hello participants. If you are still interested in the map of Lu, published by “Karl von Müller,” then, with your permission, I will continue. I mistakenly posted the continuation of my topic under another heading, but that’s not important.
I have already taken the first step in your...
Hello again, treasure hunters.
I haven't been to this site for a long time for objective reasons.
Glad to chat with you treasure hunters again.
If you don't mind, I would like to continue.
In the previous topic - "Liu's map and connections with the Nazis -2. Continuation of the topic." we...
Howdy all,
I'm a creative producer. A few years ago I was here because one of my Youtube clients was in need of something new - and so I set to work building big ideation for him. It ended up evolving into something much bigger than a Youtube video however and instead of working with a Youtuber...
I was too shocked to do a gold dance when I pulled these out of the hole. With a shallow, 8 on my Nox I almost didn't dig what turned out to be one of my best finds ever: gold, intact, cufflinks with the Tudor rose. A little research I think they are mid 1700's, not military but someone...
Hypothetical Cost Inquiry for Shipwreck Exploration off Spanish coast ⚓
Greetings Fellow Shipwreck Enthusiasts!
I'm curious about potential costs for a two stage situation related to a shipwreck exploration & salvage off the Spanish coast in International Waters.
Suppose there was a need to...
Found in Kansas along the Santa Fe trail, 1852 gold dollar coin, can’t go back to find more due to new landowners which is a grump farmer 🫤. Need a treasure to chase any known treasure tales or maps in Kansas or am I dreaming?
I picked this up today for $3 at the scrapyard. I didn't even want to pay over $1 but i'm a sucker for gold i guess. From what ive researched, it is a "MOS RAM memory for Unisys UTS-20 terminal from 1976-7 with a capacity of 64Kwords with parity divided into 4 banks of 16Kwords." I intend to put...
I've been collecting rocks for about a year now and it's been a painstaking process crushing the Quartz especially (I didn't know it was dangerous to breath the dust and crushed Quartz for 2 months without a Mask). I just recently started panning and I've got a little vial of flakes, but now...
Hey found this by an old trading post a foot deep at least with the mine lab 800 crushing it as usual! Wondering what it is!? I think a type fuse thanks for any info!
I’ve been detecting for about 3.5 years now. I bought a vehicle off a elder gentlemen couple weeks ago & he gave me permission to hunt his property. He has only lived there a few years so he did it know much about the place. Super nice guy!
Decided to go later in the evening to...
Hello everyone, after days of research I think I found my 1st ship of 12 Spanish Galleons sunk in my area.
The manifest says it was a 2 mast galleon around 46 feet in length.
Here is a picture for everyone to look at.
Does this look like a 200 year old Spanish galleon to you guys ?
Can anyone...
I haven't been able to test any gold objects on my simplex+, but I'm wondering if gold can ever make an iron grunt or if it's fairly reliable that an iron tone will always be iron. Just paranoid about skipping so many 04 VDI iron tones. Does the simplex+ just make an iron tone for any target...
Well i finally got around to hitting the beach up this weekend. i am way more interested in historical items. But with the proximity of the fort being so close, i thought what the heck. It could be the best of both worlds. Since the state wont let me metal detect any where inside the historic...
Hello Fellow Hunters, I had gone to are local Fireworks display put on by the city and was amazed by the multi city turn out it was good to see, well I managed to get back on 06July and ended up at the Soccer field I figured what the heck ground is moist anyways but I started finding deep...
Hello everyone, I hope everyone is doing well. Please I need your help to identify the form of this brass, and is it possible to melt it with a torch ( butane gas), thank you
Hello everyone,
what a lovely community!
My name is Lucas and I'm from Berlin in Germany. I'm working as a producer for a German TV show, that will be filmed in September this year in the U.S., Currently I'm looking for gold prospectors, who would be interested in taking us on a gold hunt...
Took a new detectorist out to a local park to help him improve his game. We spanked out a ton of coins which boosted his confidence. Just after an hour at the park I struck gold with this sparkler.
Any help on the hallmark makers mark would be appreciated. Cheers!
First hunt this year!! Haven't been detecting for a long time. So pumped that my first night out was a success!!
Any guess on age for this vintage looking silver ring? And what about this button?
Please comment if you have info. Thanks!
Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me? I have lost a necklace containing a 20 franc necklace whilst on holiday in France, near Perpignan. Sadly I had to go home, but have pinpointed a location it is most likely to be. Is anyone near this area that would be able to look for it with a metal...
