Could Colonial Musket Balls Hurt Even More?
Recently, The Curse of Oak Island found what they referred to as an unknown pitted musket ball.
Research shows in Colonial Times as per 1750's, soft leaded musket balls were either chewed or pits engraved into them.
This was used to hold poison or even feces matter, to enable infecting the wounds of shot victims.
Rule 1...Do not mix up your musket balls in your pouch before chewing.

One of the Treasures has been found!
Sotheby’s has presented for sale some of the earliest views of Havana, Cuba. Painted by Dominic Serres between 1770 and 1775, the four spectacular pictures depict specific stages of the British siege and capture of Havana in 1762.
These 4 paintings were 4 of 14 commissioned for General George Keppel, 3rd Earl of Albemarle...Freemason, Navy Commander-In-Chief, who remained Governor on the island of Havana for one year.
The sale price obtained for just these 4 paintings was several millions of dollars.
His favorite painting which was claimed to be hung over his living room fireplace was: Dominic Serres, The Cathedral at Havana, August–September 1762: View of the Church of San Francisco de Asís, oil on canvas, 83.5 × 122.3 cm (estimate: £300,000–400,000)
During General Keppel's one year stay in Havana, with the help of 1500 Canadian Grenadiers and the Jesuits (who were soon to be expeled from the Catholic Church), Mr Keppel plundered the other 10 Cathedrals full of Spanish Gold and Silver...all 20 ships sailed enroute to the Oak Island Treasure Vault.
One can only imagine his joy viewing the beauty and warmth from it.

..."all 20 ships sailed enroute to the Oak Island Treasure Vault."
Right.... And now the brothers are milking a History Channel paycheck each week trying to keep the cash cow alive somehow.

Robot is back with YET ANOTHER oak island treasure story.
When the bacon’s tomb, aztec gold, templar gold, shakespeare’s writings, and 100’s of other stories have been completely debunked, it’s time for a new one.
That’s exactly what the laginas do each week.

Several things one may have missed?...Season 12...Episode 10
Looks like an Ice Cellar - Hay was reported found within, which is used to help keep block ice cold.
Reported that Arsenic was discovered in the water...Arsenic and gold are often found together in nature because of an atomic-scale attraction between the two elements.
It was reported that Hemlock wood was located.
Have you noticed that much of the wood found is in good shape with no worm holes, even though it has been in contact with sea water
Were there is sea water there are Teredo Worms.
They can destroy a wharf or sailing vessel in very short time.
The only wood they will not touch is "Hemlock".
Did the Depositors know this and take the necessary preventative measures?

Gasp!
More finds of COMMON stuff on the island.
It's always hilarious to hear the laginas and others refer to, "THE ORIGINAL DEPOSITORS". 🤣
The only folks who ever deposited anything on the island were those using outhouses.

Strange Script Writing similar to:
Joseph Smith (previous posts of his connection to Oak Island) claimed his translation of the Book of Mormon was Reformed Egyptian Script.
Knights Templar symbolizim.
Oak Island 90 foot stone and H+O Stone
and:
Olmec
A cylinder seal, apparently from the Olmec occupation at Tlatilco, is inscribed with what may be the oldest writing known from Mesoamerica. The writing system is unlike any previously known and is typologically more advanced than other Mesoamerican systems
Mormon belief is that the Nephites in the Book of Mormon disappeared around the time of the Olmec?
The Olmec culture, a prominent Mesoamerican civilization, experienced a decline and eventual disappearance around 400 BCE, though the exact causes remain a subject of debate among archaeologists and historians.

Yet another non-factual based “theory” about a fictional treasure on oak island.
And no, the templars never made it to the new world.

I see you are still looking for where the marks come from.
The only thing I can add is a British "crown" mark to be emblazoned on trees in New England of more than 24" to reserve them for masts of British ships. Such a mark was three axe strokes to make an upward pointing triangle. 1650-1775
ended with "Pine Tree Riot".
