2008 EXPEDITION: YAMASH-I-T-A ( Japanese) TREASURE

[GUESS-WHO]

Guess who,

Give details. Weight and size. Pictures are decieving.

Hi Angel ~

The tape measure in the photo makes it look like it is about 16 inches long. I don't have the other dimensions. I am told that it weighs 74.6 kilograms. If I had the other dimensions I could apply a formula, providing that it is not gold plated tungsten with the approximate same weight. If I had it in my possession I would have it assayed, but I don't.

What does everybody think about this bar, fake or real?

Treasure hunting 101 class. Gold is heavy. If you had 75kg or 165 pound bar, it is hard to pick up. No one would bother setting it on top of a sheet of newspaper. Second, if it was real gold it would pucker up the newspaper under the bar, the paper would bend up around the edge under the weight. Any movement would cause wrinkles in the surface of the newspaper. There is a cast wrinkle on the side of the cast bar. When gold is poured it is glowing orange. Gold bars are not square sharp edges because the mold they are poured into are tapered to allow an easy drop from the mold. This is square flat sides.

Just my opinion and every one has their own opinion.

Thanks Zobex. I'm pretty sure I know the answer to the question, I am just curious to know what others opinions are, and yours is greatly appreciated.

Hello Friends!
I am on this project right now and I would like to share this pic with you. Maybe someone may be able to decipher this.

Scroonck

Check with other Filipino hunters in other sites. They have complete signs. I'm not just sure if all these are useful.

Thanks Angel_09

At the saw mill, go to where there was a cement slab that was the platform for the cutting blade. It may have been a large flat saw belt or a wheel saw. There would have been a separate cement slab with a boiler mounted on it about 18 feet from the steam piston and belt drive setup. Water would be expected. Water is good. Any explosives by now would be dead.

Thanks Z. At 18 feet they reached lumber, then below they got other materials like pieces of plastics. They also experience some weird things like the lights going on and off and the pump twisting around. Well, I don't give much thought on those things. They're now 30 ft down. Isn't that too deep? They also reported that the sand below is soft but when it settled around their feet they could hardly move like their feet is cast in cement.
I am going after some batteries which don't have terminal posts this week. They were unloaded by the Japanese near the end of the war. One of my companions has an experience unloading it from a sunken submarine but they were just paid to do it. Now we have a clue to where some of these were hidden. Do you have any info what this battery cases may contain?

Is it somehow related to the Yamashi.ta treasure legend?

yes....unearthed while doing yam thunting.

I've got a question for our Phillipine friends...

Let's say you're right, and it exists.

What do you plan to do with the treasure when you find it? It's stolen property. As an old friend of mine once said; "A thief cannot convey true title."

So who does it belong to?

Fake or real? And no, I do not have photo editing software.

Fake gold, sitting on top of a fraudulent FRB....double-dipping in the realm of fantasy

Not sure what FRB's have to do with a Wells Fargo currency box.

 

[GUESS-WHO]

My mistake........

Fake gold, sitting on top of a fraudulent Wells Fargo currency box....double-dipping in the realm of fantasy

No need to answer a rhetorical question. The bars were assayed and refined in a refinery and transacted, and the currency was exchanged by a bank that has procedures in place for doing this. (Funny how banks have procedures in place for "fraudulent" currency, huh?)

 

[Saturna]

Of course they were GW, and let me guess ... now you have a big house and a big car and you are the big, rich man in your neighborhood.

Congratulations.
