What Would You DO If You Found A Million Dollar Hoard Or Lost Treasure

Grow my hair and fingernails, build a giant airplane, sanitize everything, and fly-away :laughing9:
 

EVERY "MD'ing", "Treasure Hunting Forum" WILL NEVER know the MOST SUCCESSFUL Treasure Hunters . . . Why? . . . because they KEEP THEIR MOUTH SHUT TO EVERYONE!!! . . . I'll repeat this: TO EVERYONE!!!

Lessons Learned

SJA :-)
 

Reallity check!

Let's do a research on the chances of a million dollar treasure being bured in my neighborhood or even yours. We already have dozens of people on here that expressed what they would do if they found that elusive treasure.
If I were to get into detecting for the purpose of getting rich then I'm only fooling me. But if I detect to find a few silver coins, rings and maybe a valuable relic or two and research a buried treasure worth several thousand dollars in my area then I'm happy.
In todays economy, dreaming of a million dollar treasure trove in like dreaming of a multimillion dollar lottery. My money and time is on the treasure trove, but reallity says it's not worth a million dollars. Atleast not in my neighborhood. Don't worry, I'm still dreaming of being the next indiana Jones. Whom was an archeologist and we know how boring an archeologist really is.
 

I live in a place, as I have said, where local legends insist is buried a major treasure. My land belonged to the Moctezuma family at one time. While I am not convinced there is a big treasure here, who knows?

If I found that lode, I probably would frantically cover it up and announce the project was a failure. What with goverment and crooks and kidnappings, why bother?

Just like you no one would ever know..... I would tell no one.........As my Signature below say's ......LET NO ONE KNOW>>>>>>>>>>>And i live by that............ You never see me post a find here or any were.........
 

A Million Dollar's worth on today's market? Or a Million Dollar Face Value?
Market value, cast it into small ingots, less than $1,200.00 and sell them off. (No ID required)
Buy your grocery's, gas, furniture, event tickets, etc. with cash. Forever.
Face value, Advertise it, live the fame. Take the 10% finders fee and let the world know that you are a successful Treasure Hunter and (for a fee) you can go find (For customers) Grandpa's buried hoard. Take the spotlight on good day L.A or whatever. You will be busy for the rest of your life, doing what you love to do. And make a tidy Sum doing it. Your looking at $60,000,000.00 here and you ain't going to hide it.
But like I told my Son, "If I ever see your mug on Pawn Stars, I'm going to kick your A$$.

Sorry i don't need the fame... I don't need the ego bulding that some need.... So like i said i tell no one any thing........ Never post or tell of my finds............ Don't need the spotlight ..........If you put your self in the spotlight ....Advertise what you find , ........... look for the fame............ Will at some point cause you trouble.............
 

Hi guys I'm new here. Just browsing through some posts and came across this one. Really neat thread. Made me smile. Thanks all. Have a Happy Thanksgiving.
 

Im old enough to say that I would keep my mouth shut and only dole out what I needed to live reasonably well. Torch, contacts. Im sure it wouldn't be that difficult.
 

Keep a few of the best coins, and melt the rest down. What hoard?
