Why do you say that? He's never posted any factual info before?
you can argue this point till the cows come home . IT MEANS NOTHING ..people are going to do what they want and could care less what people think I will go try and find a barber dime and when i do i will have found more than all the OAK ISLAND and BEALE chasers ......ever will
Fisher knew the Atocha was real, and that it really existed. It was documented through very credible source materials. He wasn't chasing man made romance and lore. HUGE DIFFERENCE!
The case will never be closed
First I have not watched any of Oak Island Shows yet. Second, I have seen post on the Internet particularly on Facebook about a piece of eight being found on the Oak Island Show when Petter Admundsen was on the show. Did anyone see this show? Is not that a fact of treasure?
This how legend and lore combine making it appear believable.... I see NO HUGE DIFFERENCE, a few coins a hundred miles away or a few coins in a swampy cove at Nova Scotia. A search must be made then once the coins and the treasure is identified then the records or manifest can be located to identify the contents of what treasures they are actually looking for? ...

Second, I have seen post on the Internet particularly on Facebook about a piece of eight being found on the Oak Island Show when Petter Admundsen was on the show. Did anyone see this show? Is not that a fact of treasure? I mean it is treasure. It is not a boat load but treasure has been found and if you read what was cut from the show you will find out that the landowner which had to be Fred Nolan was talked to off camera. And he said several coins had been found in that area of the swamp and one man went in to town and spent a considerable amount of the pieces of eight. He also, Fred Nolan mentioned a wooden door he had probed about three or feet deep, could this be an entrance to the mines? Treasure has been found on Oak Island, not much, but Mel Fisher when he found the "Mother Lode of the Atocha" started out with only a few coins.
And try not to fall asleep !I suggest you watch the entire last season and current season of the curse of oak island. Then you will have a frame of reference to better understand the ongoing hoax.......

A case of making "mountains of treasure" out of a single found coin.
NO HUGE DIFFERENCE! If you read the book, "The Mother Lode of the Atocha" You would find out that Mel Fisher was finding coins where he believed the Atocha to be located near Alligator Key. It was not until Eugen Lyons from Seville, Spain at the Archives of Spain sent him a message and told him that the shipwreck of the Margarita and the Atocha was near the Marques Key over 100 miles away was Mel Fisher then able to get to where the shipwrecks were located. So I see NO HUGE DIFFERENCE, a few coins a hundred miles away or a few coins in a swampy cove at Nova Scotia. A search must be made then once the coins and the treasure is identified then the records or manifest can be located to identify the contents of what treasures they are actually looking for? Case closed.
ECS you and bigscoop are like walking zombies can you not make any post without posting your same OLE RHETORIC? Almost 8,000 post and 99 percent the same old crap.

I don't thin I would call that treasure. The copper 8 miravedis that they found are pretty common in this area. A number of them were found on my parent's property in New Brunswick's St John River Valley. They were legal tender here for a while.
