I am of the belief that almost every treasure legend stems from some form of truth(s)... based on multiple logical reasoning's.
Therefore... and personally.... I do believe something was buried there at one time...
BUT... like i stated before... it was long ago recovered... and long ago spent.
The recovery was done by those who took it under the noses of those who could jeopardize or thwart or cost said recovery... and quietly split off to retire with the mindset of "loose lips sink ships".
Too many stories / legends to not have had some validity.
Stories get twisted.
For all we know the story could have originally been ..." hey did your ever hear about that treasure Joe Blow found on Oak Island"... TO....
"I heard it wasn't Joe Blow found a treasure but the Treasure is still there and it was Aztecs"
TO...
"It wasn't Aztec treasure... It was a Templar treasure".... And so on.... and so on.... and so on.
No matter... a treasure probably WAS on OI... and again... long ago found by some lucky individuals who secretly made off with it and the remnants of such activity and subsequent activities are what are being found throughout the times.
Its called "Chinese Whispers"...
“Inaccurately transmitted gossip. 'Chinese whispers' refers to a sequence of repetitions of a story, each one differing slightly from the original, so that the final telling bears only a scant resemblance to the original.”
