So im in harbor island bahamas fishing yellow fin tuna. My boss itroduces me to an old fishing buddy and after a couple rum drinks he invites us to dinner. The boss asks me to bring some treasure coins to dinner to show his friend. After a long winded story and passing the treasure coins around the table this guy calls his wife in the states and asks her to text him some pictures of the treasure they have so he can show it to me. As casually as my 4 year old farts in church this guy shows me a pic of the dragon whistle and chain.
This is a pic off the net not the one he showed me. I say do you know what a famous piece of treasure this is, I tell him that no one has seen it in 40 years and no one knows where it ever went. Of course he says what do you think its worth ? I say it priceless. He says thats not all, can you seperate a pile of coins that are stuck together. Then he shows me a pic of a large clump of siver cobs fused together. And finally he shows me a pic of a gold ring with very large crudely cut diamond that he got at the same time. Ive been invited up to the house in florida to examine all the treasure he has and possibly get some appraisals on this ( stuff) as he calls it. This is for sure the real deal and his story matches the caption in the photo. He has no clue or care to the significance of his pieces. He says he bought them in the late 60s to help out some broke treasure hunters that a close friend of his knew. He will probably give me some of the coins if I ask. This man has so much money that this stuff means nothing to him its just some (stuff) in a big box at home. He only bought it to help his friend get some capital for rex stocker and associates. I guess that meant kip Wagner and real eight. I told him that these pieces are many times more valuable than 50,000 he paid for the lot. He has no idea of the value of the items he has, nor does he care. Im still in shock and cant wait to go up and check it out. I will bring the good camera and take a bunch of photos in natural light and artificial light. He may tell me to get it sold who knows where this will go ? Guess I should start talking with frank sedgewick again. Im definitely gonna take a pic or 2 of me wearing that sucker. Hell just the pics might be worth something. He has not even looked at it in 25 years he said. Hopefully ill get up there as soon as possible to document this treasure again. Wow im still in shock !!
