Hello,
Thought maybe some of you would be interested in the The Lost Treasure of the Nazi.
American fighter planes shot down a German Junker 88 on May 5, 1945 which was carrying Hitler's last mail delivery together with gold and platinum ingots. It fell on a glacier in the Alps and is said to be lying under the clear waters of Lake Atter in the Salzburg region. It has not been seen since that day.500,000,000 gold francs in Nazi-era treasure lies hidden in the area of Aussee, 37 miles from Salzburg and at the southwestern tip of two mountain lakes which are 6 miles long and traversed by a stream which is a tributary of the traun.
In July of 1959, German technicians working with ultrasonic depth finders and underwater television cameras pinpointed 16 cases in Lake Toplitz in Austria at a depth of between 38 and 44 fathoms. Several of these were brought up and found to contain perfect forgeries of British sterling notes to the value of 8,500,000 pounds. From the Nazi masters of counterfeiting, it was the major trump card for "operation Bernhardt" calculated to upset the Allied economy. Ingots of solid gold lie alongside the other watertight containers according to reliable sources, as well as additional counterfeit currency. .
Hitler's treasure of the Third Reich was dumped into Lake Toplitz near the Devil's Trashcan in the Styrian Alps. The cache includes billions in gold, gems and other valuables in addition to secret records of the Nazi party-all encased in waterproof caches. William Canaris, the Nazi intelligence chief until he fell during the 1944 General's Plot against Hitler, is supposed to have buried a hoard of treasure in the Aussee. Supposedly, it is cached in one of the mountain caves here, and contains Persian rugs, tapestries and a huge store of narcotics worth millions. On Christmas day, 1944, Gestapo chief Ernst Kaltenbrunner arrived at Alt Aussee and rented a house. Near there he buried a large number of treasure caches, including 100 pounds of gold coins, hundreds of thousands of American dollars, several chests of diamonds and other gems and a large collection of rare and priceless stamps. Buried in the gardens of the villa Kerry which he rented, American troops found almost $3,000,000 in loot - and no one knows how much more remains.
Thanks
