great story
the best part i reckon is the theories of whose treasure it is.... blackbeard, captain kidd, marie antoinette's treasure, francis bacon's declaration that he wrote shakespeare's plays - ha. The only thing missing is the lost city of gold of the incas magically transported to the coast of Nova Scotia, possibly by the conquistadores escaping english pirates....
still, these stories are terrific. they catch the imagination.
one day i will bury a gold coin in my backyard just for the fun of it.
