Man finds gold coins worth $20,000

Adirondack Treasure Hoard!

An English army officer of noble birth by the name of Moses Follensby was believed to have buried about $400,000 in the Adirondack Mountains. In 1820, he built a log cabin on the pond that now bares his name, Follensby Pond. (Two other bodies of water also bare his name: Follensby Clear Pond just west of upper Saranec Lake, and Follensby Jr. Pond about 8 miles north of the same lake.) One October day, he was found near death and mumbling by two sportsmen fishing near his cabin. Before dying, he revealed to them the location of a chest hidden under a large stone. It contained a British uniform coat, a package of letters, a gold scabbard decorated with jewels and impressed with a coronet, gold and gem inlaid toilet articles, and two pistols mounted in silver.

Further examination of his belongings, revealed that he had buried the $400,000 nearby his log cabin, supposedly located just a few miles southwest of Tupper Lake in Franklin County.

The site of the cabin is lost in the dust of time but it is known that he lived near the pond, on his property which was supposedly located near Follensby Road, two miles southeast of Tupper Lake near routes 3 and 30.

Gold Doubloons on Pass-A-Grille Beach Florida

View Larger Map
This St Pete area beach is exactly the kind of place I like to hit on a semi-regular basis and is also the kind of site that I will be camped out at after the next hurricane blows through!

Long before Treasure Dave and I were knee high to a grass hopper, Gold Doubloons have been washing up on this beach!

I would highly recommend shallow water hunting here as it is allowed.
Start your search in front of the Hotel Don Cesar(the big pink place) and flip a coin for north or south.

Chances are Excellent for recent loss and antique jewlery here as well as the outside chance of GOLD.

Remember I am talking about water shooting at this site .. being on the beach is so so .. In the water your chances go up about 95% !!

I have heard of Gold coins being found here repeatedly so watch the weather and get a move on ...Todays the day!
