I have located treasure in the Southeastern United States. I am seeking a partner capable of re-powering my vessel and providing funding to build recovery apparatus. I am willing to share up to 30% of all recovery, maybe more for an enthusiastic investor. The investors may accompany recovery operation. I can show proof of this treasure as I have retrieved some examples. It has escaped detection as it is extremely hazardous to get to.
Confidentiality agreement required.
Serious investors only:
No brain pickers need reply.

Would also depend on what your talking about water recovery or land?

No permits are required to retrieve these items. This is an underwater recovery operation. I have real recovered items in my posession. One item appraised at over 8,000.00
Any further information will only be released to a serious investor under a confidentiality agreement.
 

How about a photo of the recovered item.I have invested in other operations off the coast of Florida and proof of investment is little to ask and ALWAYS gladly given.I think you'll probably have a hard time finding anybody to invest under these conditions.If not for brain pickers fools and their money are soon parted.And by the way,its not really that big of a secret that there are over a thousand wrecks out there off the coast yet to be discovered.
 

No offense meant to any members here but photos and more detailed information will only be released under confidentiality agreement to serious investors. There will be no such disclosures on this forum. It is not the appropriate venue for such sensitive information. I consider having properly signed non-disclosure agreements to be a good and more than appropriate business practice and see no reason this should hinder me from finding a qualified partner. In fact serious investors understand and prefer this type arrangement. My intention here is to minimize the exposure level to the details of my find to those that will not be taking part in the recovery project. Any investor will of course be given adequate information for them to make an informed decision.
 

I see a 1798 big nose charlie 8 reale there, so the wreck must be newer than that date.
 

Know a guy banned from this forum that now is king bs, if you look close enough his coins from his book about himself...(ebay coins) look like a couple of these. Good luck
 

Why would a collection like that have to had come from Ebay?

I know of several locations along the eastern US seaboard where you can find coins from different nations and time periods all on the same beach, such as those shown in the photo.

But then it wouldn't make it a treasure, right? Who would ever fund someone to go and recover coin debris from a beach?

Anyhow, they aren't from shipwreck either - first you have a mix of cobb and milled coins. As Fisheye has pointed, archaeologically speaking I pretty much doubt that a ship that was wrecked after 1798 would be carrying cob coins, when milled coin production had started 66 years before.

Then, some of them are cut into bits, like they were used as small change, indicating a land origin and not an underwater trove. Finally, one of them has even a hole...

(or maybe nomad has found the wreck of a treasure hunter's boat!)

If you can't trust a first/one time poster, who can you trust?

Alexandre or is it Paulo - How is that you profess to be an archaeologist and protector of submerged cultural heritage when you routinely engage in disclosing wreck locations where artifacts and coins are purportedly laying about on an internet treasure hunting site of all places, and disclose to the venomous evil treasure hunters where to find research sources that would lead them to other locations. Doesn't that kinda go in the face of the protocol that your alleged colleagues follow?

Exactly. Not from just one shipwreck-singular.

But they could be from several shipwrecks, all located in the same area.

Again, there are a number of locations on the Eastern Seaboard where this scenario occurs. They may be coins found on the beach, but this usually indicates a wreck (or wrecks) close offshore.

In Wabassso Beach, Florida, we find early American coins, English coins, milled Spanish coins and various Spanish cobs all on the same beach. Just offshore are wrecks from 1618, 1715, 1810 and 1824.
 

I agree Tom one can find varied coins along the shore, my point is those coins and photo has been used before. There is one particular cob that in shape is duplicated, I wont get into it and will happily remove my post but will leave this, that there is another forum with a "diver" as moderator that posts many pictures of coins very similar if not identical to those including a self published book. By the way I do admire your hard work and at no time am I questioning your view. Later

It´s Paulo Alexandre Monteiro, Joe Seeker.. :)

Why do I do it? Because I believe that archaeological knowledge is to be shared with the community. I just hope that people will see that we can still do what passions us (after all, we all love shipwrecks and history), but do it the right way. And if they don't do it... well, either they will be judged by the law, by God or by the next generations, whatever is applicable.

The references above to coins and pictures will seem out of context as the pictures were removed for some reason.

To make sense out of these posts here is one of the photos...

Why are you guys so negative?
This picture is indeed a very mixed lot like a guy that really knows how to use a metal detector would have. Now, if that expert metaldetectorist claims to have found a significant treasure, it could well be that he has found a hoard. The cobs would indicate that the hoard has been accumulated over the centuries.
I have a good idea of how that could happen. I am not so sure though that it would be legal to recover the hoard.
