Tear the monument up there’s the gold
“…If this was from the 20’s or 30’s, it wouldn’t be here anymore…” I beg to differ. I have found things along old highways, farm houses, and other places where cars and homesteads once were from that era and you can find nuts and bolts that are from the 20’s and 30’s. 😂
lol this is about my hometown. I don’t believe it but might have to suffer through it to understand people in my town better
Does this Kevin character ever find anything or does he just Chase gold and silver and stories
spend ten million to find two million in gold , oh well history and video of things
Someone failed to write “finding the gold” into the script. How many shows did they squeeze out of this story ?
Here we go again! Fary tales.
Dont look in Mexico stand down now!!!!! U have no right in Mexico ill make sure of th8
If they find it, they should donate it to the South, where it originated.
Yeah figuring out where Jefferson Davis crossed a river in Georgia is absolutely essential to finding gold at the bottom of lake Michigan lmao
I’m always blown away how so many people will continuously watch people search for treasure unsuccessfully.
why go with a detector thats only 3 feet, get a 2 box detector can go down to 8 ft
So. The remaining Confederate Treasury was with Davis. Meaning it was hid before his capture or the Union troops took it or some confederate went back later and got it. Sank in the swamp? Burn wagons? Look for the metal parts in about 6 inchs of top soil around the area.
Man always leading to dead ends. That’s no proof of the gold was there
I can’t believe ole Marty didn’t roll out the wine cart for these guys!
Was the tree in Georgia that anchored the ferry even there 150 years ago? If so it would be a sapling, no?
I live in Michigan & have seen waterways change course with every major storm. The notion that ANY Michigan waterway is unchanged over 150+ years is sheer nonsense.
Im sorry but that coin didn’t appear to be in the ground for the last 150 years
The unemployment number is inaccurate! Looks like they are just estimating from unemployment payrolls. That doesn’t measure out of work at all.
Don’t waste ur life away watching this channel
I live on the Pearl Rier in Mississippi, And like the seasons of time, It changes a little each day with the current slowley ripping the banks away. On the good side of this , We got good catfishing.
Thay find it I remember when this happened
Ok when i was a kid,my buddys dad who is french canadian told me a story simmular to this,but the wagon of gold was barried some place or was claimed to be,around Hillsdale MI
This show is all smoke and mirrors and that is fine but the fact that they somehow dragged the guy that runs the Museum into the smoke and mirrors is a great example of how today nothing can be trusted.
gary is awsome he is the man
I like this show more than oak island
Should be called the other Curse of Rick and Marty show!!!!
Holly s..t.
If you truely want to know the biggest mystery back then look at the Fore Fathers of Religion. The Nation was created by religious men in their beliefs. Religion beliefs taught a person how to except all behaviors of men and to choose a greater enactment of trial by error. Do you see what was really going on here??? The nation had not shaped into a better place until our behaviors changed either by learning from mistakes to make better choices due to learning a better belief system in learning how to function better being around each other. This unity of belief system is still being used today. Religion is what molds a person’s behavior to seeing things better by doing all things better due to learning better values from experiences and religion teaches this from the beginning what to except in life and what not to except bc of the behavior of men to doing better things or to succeed from makeing better choices due to learning from experiences throughout life.
So, you want Gold? Get a good job. Don’t blow your money on vacations and stupid stuff. Save it, then go to a reputable coin shop and buy 1 ounce of Gold every time you save up enough.
The gold has already been found in Starkville Mississippi I know the location
Bla.bla bla
You know , I think Kevin was reincarnated and he is getting his share of the booth, what do you all think?
Oh, I know some Minty people, not sure I spelt it rihht.
Well the book from the museum is cutting a secret, it mean not handwriting. Someone already know a real handwriting, before print a book. I think someone found a treasure and hide it a secret somewhere. They think they are at Georgia and Michigan. Probably it missing or gone.
Interesting how often Confederate Gold seems to sink.
Well if oak island is any clue to the success of this show. I’d say let’s just all meet up and go metal detecting! It’s fun and way better than watching this.👍🎧✌️
More like some random person dropped a coin once. Lol. They are delusional if they think that one coin is evidence of treasure!
Interesting.
My family lore has always said 2 brothers, one being my great great grandfather, had a part of the gold. Both were CSA soldiers. The gold sat by the fireplace until the one brother took off with the gold, not my line, and used it to build up his life. That side of the family is known as the rich side while my grandmother’s family was just plain farmers. Brothers were both sir name of Thomas. I just wonder if it’s truth or rumor. But sure the truth is somewhere in there. One side got rich the other didnt… the rich line was out of GA.
I have three confederate coins that my grandpa won in a poker game from an old Indian in the u.p.
Another history channel tv show where they will never find anything but a rusty nail that points to treasure lmaoo
It’s another Oak Island
Found more than oak island
💯
Close the Musiam it stands for all the Rong Risens kkk Glore
The N.S.A has sattiltes that can find gold from space . I bet they had Navy Seals haul that Gold from the lake and used the money to fund False Flag terror attacks .
I bet Morgan’s Raiders hid some booty somewhere.
B.s. b.s. snake oil saleman one trick pony show
I recall they found railroad tracks that go beside the shore of lake MI old and burried several feet below sand. Tracks used to load a traincar onto a ship ( that sunk with gold). Anyways thats the way the show goes
