Exclusive for the TH'ing Forum!!

It's amazing,
But!
I have come across one of the largest treasures in The US!
AND!
I have found out, that it is for all practical purposes, "IT" is TOTALLY UNKNOWN!
I found this out, "the treasure being unknown", by questioning some serious (?) TH'ers" who live in the State, where the treasure is located!
Roughly WORTH, conservatively, "A BILLION DOLLARS" !   

YES!
I said, A BILLION ! When it's converted to, Modern, U.S. DOLLARS!
Unbelieveable,
BUT! Absolutely TRUE!   Smiley

I found/came across info, on, This treasure, quite by accident..
I was researching another U.S. Treasure, Which, itself, has not been  found,
Anyway,
I accidently, came across this information...!
While, I was researching in ACTUAL U.S. Govt. Documents!
This Billion Dollar, Treasure,
      &
It is NOT !

A modern day Treasure
NOR!
Is it some fantasty  Civil War Cache
OR!
Legendary,   Indian/Spanish/Aztec, etc....
The records I was researching in, are Authenicate (REAL!) U.S. Govt. Historical Archives!
"The Archives", Found in Washington, DC!

(AND! I know exactly, what kind of reaction this "post" is going to get! BUT! I can PROVE Every word ! )

Here's a bit more info on the Billion Dollar Treasure!
It is in a Southern State...
It is underwater....salt water
About 30' under, of, most times, murky water....
It is very close to shore....
Under two miles....from shore!
It is in a remote area .....
Here's the deal !
If You Are Interested...

Because of the VALUE!
I will only work with...
By, showing the authenic records of where & what..
To a "Proposal" from responsible parties !
No Money! Up Front..
Is being asked or required !
AND!/OR!
Interested... In!
The other, smaller treasure, mentioned...
This One! Is located on land!
It is of large, physical size....
Once in the area, it should be easy to spot!
This is ! a rare Civil War Relic!

ToolBoxDiver:
I am afraid that there'll be no details on this, until the above the request is met!
I have no intention of giving this away to the world!
It is Just Too Big!
I have forgotten your equipment....Did you ever get a boat ?

SORRY!
DEAN:
But!
What info is/was given out,  above,  is all of the information, that I am prepared to furnish !    Cry
I am sure that a lot of people are curious,
 BUT!
Until/unless there's a serious comittment....
And! As a TH'er,
I am sure that you understand...
It is just too large of a treasure !
To say much more, about it !
But!
It is surprising that I haven't re'cd ANY! along that line,
IE: Proposal/comittments !
BUT! I can wait,
Until I can get around to it LATER, If I don't !
That may sound weird!
"Until I can"
But!
The first item that is going to be needed, is a good Salvage Boat!
The only boats I own, are up on "blocks", and the largest of them, NEEDS to grow to better than twice it's lenght!
Before I would consider it suitable!
ANYONE!
Got one sitting around ?

This site, although a VERY! Large One!   Shocked
I may have to possibly revise my estimate downwards ?, ( But! Maybe UpWARDS, Too!)
I just made a rough estimate of the value w/o really doing much researching into, just how much the
"Recovered" materials are worth on the market today!
I have seen prices of "1000 x" what it was worth!
On most of the items!
AND!
 This site, Is kind of, on the bottom of my list of treasure trove sites!
Mainly,
Because of the logistics that are involved ....
And!
Also,
That,
I am oriented toward Desert/Mnts areas...
& Not U/W Sites!
And! If I don't rec' any valid offers    Cry
It'll have to wait, until I can afford the time & to buy all of the equipment that'll be needed !
IE:
I just spend over $1800.....on two items, for the Jeep !
AND!
I DON'T Trust anyone else to do any of the work..
So! That figure is just for the 2 items,
THAT!  I   installed!  (No Labor chg)
AND! Gentlemen!
Do Not HOLD YOUR BREATH !    Wink
Waitting for Pictures!
I don't intend to publish any!
That would just invite scrutiny .....   :Smiley
I am not! Going to Help, finance anymore of the, Govt's Throw Away Ventures!
That is a definite,   " 'NO! WAY! "   Angry

If this site is so low on your list then why even bother with us at all...I just offered what I have, no more no less and If thats not what your looking for then fine...I won't loose any sleep over this thats for sure.  Contact a Large Commercial Diving Company and see what they say...I'm pretty sure you already know the answer to that ..Cheesy...Just sounds like a scam to me now so as they say "Go For It Yourself"...You should have all the money you need next spring after returning with your truckload of treasure from the southwest venture your heading on now so just buy a boat when you get back and Go to Commercial Diving School then outfit yourself with dive gear, a compressor, side scan sonar and anything else that you feel you need and Git R Done...Smiley

ToolBoxDiver:
Perhaps you don't understand the "Tone" of the "post"!
So!
Let me clarify it:
I am already committed, by making arrangements, contacts & etc..
For this upcoming trip!
Which I am planning 12 months OR longer!
I certainly hope that you are aware of the logistics involved in trip of that LENGHT!
I "posted" the Article because I know how long it would take to :
1..To get any serious replies
2..For me to make another trip to Archives in Washington, to get the Proof/factual documents
2..draw up a "contract" that is agreeable to all parties
3..Present the documents to prove my story!
4..To start gathering personnel and equipment
5..To set a time/date when everyone is available!
6....And! So ON!
As you know, anything u/w is not going to be found on "Day One"
"Week One" or even "Month One"!
Remember!, it took "Fisher" 10 Yrs!
AND! This is not to be taken as meaning the site will take that long
But!
I am sure, that as a "salver" , You Know!!!!
If you don't plan on this kind of scenario, you'd just haven't been out there in the field/seas looking for something!
I can guarantee this will not be a week end trip
Where you.....
Boat out to the site, suit up, jump in, find the treasure, pick it up and go home!
Pure Fantasy!
But!
There are people out there who actually believe it!
I have had several on trips with me!
Here's a Favorite quote ...
"This is a lot of work! I didn't think it would take this long!" 
From a guy who spent  four  WHOLE  days in the field w/me looking for a LARGE Spanish Cache in Southern Arizona!
He actually, packed up and left ... 
Both Me'n Dog standing there watching his dust!   Undecided
He claimed to be a TH'er Too!    Cool
SURE! HE! WAS!    Grin
In his dreams, maybe!
AS far as getting a Commerical Salvage Company...
Know any "Honest Ones" ?
Who after finding out about the Treasure...won't "Blow Me Off"
And! Head out for themselves!
Remember, This is no! little couple of thousand dollar site!
100s of millions, in Gold/Money! Do & Will  Change People !
If you doubt , this, go to the Doc Noss, aka, White Sands Treasure Site
OR!
Buy the BOOK... "1oo Tons of Gold"
And See how, THIS! (Gold)
YOUR! Own Govt robs, kills and steals!

You say in your "post/reply" that you think my "Largest US"..."Treasure site" is a "Scam"
Just What do you base that on?   Grin

Well!
Then...
Kindly do me a 'favor" and tell me how this "scam" works!
Since...
I have not, in fact, I have already, stated,
I do not want any money  "Up Front" or otherwise!
AND! I will put this statement, in B/W and in Public...
That," I will never ask for any" !
"For any purpose" !
So!
Then! With that "stated"!
And Stated,  in B/W and In/or on a Public Forum....
  Just !    Tell me...
 How is this "Scam" supposed to work ?   Huh?
I sure can't figure it out!   Wink
How?  :Smiley

Hey Bill, this is Randy Wright from that "other forum". I don't have any equipment, but would be more than happy to join you, and do as much of the work as I can. I have a lot of free time Smiley

I'm still up for the other thing we talked on the phone about too.

Hi Randy:
I'm trying to get out your way in the next few weeks....In fact, I have to make a "run" into town to pick up some Jeep Parts that I had to order!
It's a gitt'n hard to buy parts for the '77!
I hope that is will be the "Last!"
I am installing a 4x2 conversion kit, to allow me a selectable 2wd, instead of the present FULL TIME 4X4  & it's 11 mpg!
Then,
I won't be working on the U.S. Biggie, until I get to some of these other sites, in Az/NM/Ca., etc, that are, FAR! more accessable and I won't have to buy all of that new equipment for !

The So. Az., Spanish Silver Cache is number Two on my site this trip!
If! I can come up with enough help..Security/campsitters, etc !
Do You Think, That there might be...

 Smiley  ANY! Volunteers out there ?     Grin
