In regards to the Beale narration. What if someone decided to sit down and pen a story about a treasure that they only thought to be true, and yet it wasn't, the hope being to either gain more knowledge about what they can't yet discover and to also reap some measure of profit from their publication? It's not like this isn't happening all of the time as even today we still this routinely taking place, so just in this there is enough supporting evidences to entertain the possibility. This could also explain a lot of the discrepancies and inaccuracies in the tale along with the obvious absence of any confirming materials in support of the tale. Not saying this is the actual case but there does exist enough reason and supporting evidences to entertain the notion. So what say you. Do you think it possible? Yes? No? Maybe?
 

A possibility for the narrative in the Beale Papers dime novel pamphlet, and it was directed for sale in the local market of Lynchburg and surrounding areas.
