If anyone is in the area of Wilmington, there is a possibly treasure/native american artifact cache in the Beaver Vally Rock Shelter (Beaver Vally Cave). The cave is the only one in Delaware, and while it isn't big, it was used by the Lenni Lenape tribe as shelter before the colonization of the area.
There was an archeological survey of the cave that produced a couple of arrowheads and artifacts. There is also a local story that valuables were hidden in the cave during the Revolutionary War.
The only problem is that it is on private land, so you would have to get permission from the land owner (Woodlawn Trustees).
