Seen a few treasure hunting docs as of late, some guy got hit in the head and had a vision that sent him on a hunt, found... Nothing. Some other guy found a stone with strange marking... Found, another stone, then another. And now this... A code means there's a treasure and then they ask spirits! . Can't anyone just find a bloody map to follow, and then ACTUALY find the treasure! 😩

This reminds me of that TV series The Curse of Oak Island which is currently in season 64 or however long it is that they still can't find anything 🤣

Found a $20 in front of the store once ..... i won the treasure already

gold and silver are heavy no way they could have traveled that far with that weight

Sat here in England after a frosty night with a cup of coffee and the sun is up and an enjoyable story....

The aerial footage they show at 46:45 is from Ewing VA, its 250 miles from Bedford. The top of the Mountain at top of the screen is the Kentucky line. There's a chance that the Swift Silver Mines are located here,(look it up)but definitely not the Beale treasure.

I'm from Bedford, VA. I grew up on a farm there. I have never once heard anyone take this treasure story seriously. 😅 It's always so crazy to see anything about Bedford in shows.

I never have understood how treasure hunters land on stuff like the Biel Papers. There are so many real treasures out there to find its overwhelming.

If this much treasure is buried by Bufords Tavern or anywhere in West Virginia or Virginia, it would have been discovered by accident a couple of hundred years ago, because of the entire area being passed through countless ownership. If there was a treasure, then it was found long ago by somebody like Rockefeller or another 18th or 19th century tycoon.

Or maybe....the codebreakers said it was hoax, so that they can go and find it themselves!😁

I live in Front Royal, a couple hours away from Lynchburg Virginia. A buddy of mine has a cousin who lives in Lynchburg. He told me that his cousin spent summers in the 1990s looking for the treasure. He actually has maps/paper that are slightly torn and supposedly it matches up some mountains that are connected to the story of the treasure. Well, as far as I know he's found nothing. I thought about going down there myself and doing a little searching. Lynchburg has a museum that has information about the treasure that you can get more information there and do some searching. But, I believe it is a hoax also. I would probably spend more time soaking in the environment of the trees and the forest instead of looking for treasure..lol

Mesmerism is part of how Joseph smith made up Mormonism. Mesmerism was more accepted in the 19th century. Doesn’t make it more correct, just more accepted. Or less ridiculed.

Great docutainment. Thanks 👍 One adage comes to mind: there's a sucker born every minute. Which rings as true today, as it did back in the time of the Harts.

It’s highly unlikely 30 men are willing to bury so much wealth and never return for it also wouldn’t it make sense going to the business that swapped it all for gold silver and jewels etc 😂😂

If you were on your deathbed you would surley tell someone close to you where the treasure was

Here's my question. Why would 3 healthy men who supposedly found millions in gold and then decide to travel across country just to bury it and not live the rich life?

J W Sherman: My tale will survive for centuries. Marty Lagina: Hold my shovel. 🤣😂

2:26 secs to start

Well, IF it was a true tale, .. LMAO,... I know two code-breakers that lived happily ever after.

What happened to the other 33 men? Why did none of them come to find it or had the code? There is no way that some of them would not have come forward or tried to find it? Very interesting!

So these maps for all these treasures, seems easier to remember the one location you hid the treasure than to remember puzzles and several locations and codes lol

Coincidentally the first book of genesis also refers to a few Vaults and where two rivers meet....

BTW, if it were real, it would be deeper than 6 feet, by now. The natural organic debris decomposition over the years would place another 1 - 3 feet of soil atop the items.

There's going to be a construction crew that goes missing one of these days

Should of tried Bletchley Park they were pretty damned good at breaking codes an Enigma !!! Even R.I.P. Alan Turin

So are we supposed to believe that's an early 1900 house with an AC unit in the window?

Buffalo hunters that are very smart to write an unbreakable code. PULLING MY PLONKER.

No one is going to dig a hole for more than a 1/2 hour, especially 6 feet deep.

People dont bury treasure they spend it

Some of you have mentioned Oak Island as having the same problem and this is true. The problem with these lost treasures is that no one can decipher them properly. When someone spends enough time with a cipher map, stone, or letter and cannot figure things out, having spent so much time using up all their resources to no avail. The owning party has no other option but to expose the map, stone or letters hoping to make money in some form like writing a book to recover some of the losses because in their mind they come to the realization that it is a made up story and if not at least they can make something since their giving away important information to someone that does know how to read the cipher. It is what most people will do when they get tired of holding on to something they just can’t figure out. It is true that the fiction book treasure island was created by the author based on his failure of not finding the island. He died very close to the island not knowing it whereabouts. Yes! People make books when they can’t get nowhere with a treasure story. The actual Templars map that leads you to the lost Dutchman’s goldmine is being used as a book cover for the lost Dutchman. Figure that out! So the problem is that they can’t read the cipher as in this story. I can assure you that the Thomas Beale story is ciphered and he left certain stones in Arizona to backup his life story that he found the Lost Dutchman’s goldmine for a specific reason. He describes that he took gold back to Virginia. He describes the three places in Virginia which most people do not understand because they don’t know how to read the cipher. I do and I can tell you that there is nothing under the money pit on Oak Island, but there is something there that they will not find again, they are not skilled in deciphering. Do not be surprised when the time comes that someone will eventually define all these treasure maps.

no.

I'm in the UK, I gave a tramp £40.00 just before Christmas last year, I'd seen him before and I've given him money and food before, after I gave him the £40.00 which was 2x £20 notes, I only saw him one more time and never again, I always wondered what happened to that old man. We have a chain of Tesco shops here in the UK and after paying my grocery bill I noticed the familiar free books that you can have for free or you can give a donation, I picked up the first book I saw which was lying on the top of other books on a bookcase, inside was a £50.00 note. This was witnessed by my wife, and my wife was with me when I used to give the old man money and food as both of us used to and still do eat at a particular weatherspoon pub that does decent food and drink at reasonable prices. Call me silly, but I had a notion ages before that the old man had died. The £50 note inside the book was his way of giving back. It's a romantic notion, I know. Thought I'd share...😊

If this pamphlet was published and on the shelf, wouldn't it make sense that everyone would be able to read it? Just like any story ever told, the reader can believe anything they want. Would be interesting in seeing this pamphlet in person though.

This is akin to those of us who play slot machines...we know the chances of hitting the jackpot are slim yet we keep hoping...read somewhere it has something to do with dopamine as a neurotransmitter in the brain that contributes to focus, motivation and happiness...and hope

myth hunters good show

23:58 .... Congratulations on correctly using the word "disinterested", which means unbiased and impartial. (It does not mean "uninterested".)

Have anyone try using decoration of independent was the second page number 2 but the first had to be a paper of important. Time to relook at the codes

Nobody is going to trade coins and jewels for raw ore.. That is just so stupid, it's hard to explain to people that do not know what it takes process ore... This tale is BS.. It was constructed in my opinion, to throw others who were after what they did have, like the location of the mine, off of their tail... It's quite possible that there is some treasure, but nothing like is blown way out of proportion.

Someone from St. Louis tracked them, got the treasure and killed them.

I doesn't make sense that someone would make a code in numbers like 687 where 7 in 687 actually means the 687th letter in the alphabet or even in reference to the manual/letter because it would take way to long to write the entire code, it has to be much simpler then that. It would make sense that the 6 in 687 is the sixth letter in something, the 8 is the 8th letter in something and the 7 the seventh letter in something. One must also consider that it makes no sense that someone would leave the code with someone for safekeeping without wanting to come back for it some day if that they did not want the keeper of it to discover the code then nobody could because the person who left it would not have provided the reference to the number for anybody to decipher it. If they left it with someone in case they will not be back for it by a certain time and they could have the gold then they would of provided a way to decipher the numbers into something that makes sense, and that could only mean the letter or instruction documents is the way given for the numbers to make sense and it would not be that time consuming to decipher because they would of had to take just as long to encode it. It could be a practical joke or a real map of sorts it will be one or the other. If it is a joke nobody can figure it out, if it was left for someone to have then it should be easy to figure out if you have all the documents that went with it.

now, that's a great story, until this day people are curious

Dillinger was by far the smartest person ever on finding money

it is not worth looking for a lost "treasure" that you will not find no matter how long you search

19th century had really good laser printing

There wasn't one Thomas Beale running around 19'th century America, or even Virginia, there who knows how many everywhere, including using the name as an alias, most likely, like William Antrim later with Billy the Kid (he has like 10 cousins alone with variations of his name, adding to the eventual death controversy.) Beale cyphers are an existent thing in the code world, I can't remember if it predates this mystery or not, but the truth is it doesn't matter if the treasure was re or just a really clever marketing stunt, nobody "wasted" their lives searching if they had fun doing it.

Let me know when someone strikes it rich…Oh and I also like to know if the treasure is ever found! You can see how tempting treasure hunting becomes…until it turns into an obsession.

If I told anyone where I found the treasure, would the IRS parasites eventually find out?

@33:14 - This is what you get for following a small medium at large.

Metal detectorist's that can find some of those 1890's suckers coins that were out there looking for Beale's Treasure might dig up some $ from the searchers. Real Gold n Silver.

NO

Jeeezzzzzz… dudes! Turn down the loud music.. if you’ve got an interesting story you don’t need it

Theres a comparison of this story to Oak Island, but I suggest: That subject has a very real History and very real finds as they dug. There is or was a real object(s) to find, and a purpose for it being there. On the other hand, this story has as much evidence of being a prepared hoax as any evidence of treasure. I doubt there's more than a box with a note that indicates they cracked the code but there's no more than 1 gold nugget for the efforts. ... and maybe the purpose of the experience. It's interesting but has no real foundation of purpose. At present, the code can be deciphered using a Computer Program. ... and you can bet that the owner of the "Federal Reserve Bank Corporation" has done this. ... or consulted a Psychic/"Remote Viewee, or Channeler. (CIA has proven Remote Viewing has accurate outcomes.)

Regardless that kid did indeed lead them to a legitimate location where once was hidden something by someone long ago!

One minute in, and already know they find nothing😂

Way too much loud musick didn't even match the storyline.Junk. Also, there is no need to have no code BS. To carry that much "treasure" was another impossibility back in the days by 3 man!😂😅😊.

Wonder if they tried the declaration backwards.

Simple boys n girls, its four miles north of the old tavern, located in an excavated, or created vault, 6 feet beliw ground. GL.

If the second code was the Declaration of Independence, the first should be the Magna Carta...

All it is going to take to prove or disprove the Beal Treasure is not cracking a code, rather it will take a few people to learn the reverse engineered physics involved in physical on-ground dowsing with the modern light weight ball bearing dowsing rod. When enough people become professional dowsers by practicing the dowsing lessons after reading the book: The Art of Dowsing - Separating Science from Superstition ($14.95), by Michael Fercik.

First example of Media manipulation of the public, the holy grail for today's Media groups 😁

@22:50 could happen if you think about the proven remote viewing program. It's all relaxation

I want my 50:24 back !

Some people get belligerent on certain topics and issues.They will dig their heels and will never admit their wrong , like that guy even going to the grave believing.✌️

The "style" had more to do with available resources, natural & monetary. The modern concept of using strip malls is a more expeditious & cost effective method of shaking down a greater number......in familiar surroundings.

I hope someone checked the Bible, since it's the most-read book in the world and it makes sense it would have been used as a cypher.

Oldest trick in the book

This is rich really then mesmerizing their own gold it came to4000 lbs like king Solomon's gold was 4000 lbs

I think, if Alisdair continues to narrate all your documentaries then I won't stop watching any of your documentaries. Whether you lie in them or not.😂😂😂

a wind uo ......ah I thought so.

It's clickbaity to write "treasure code" in the thumbnail when that was proven to be a hoax.😑

I wonder if AI could solve the code?

State borders were changed five times so did the maps showing the different state boundrries

Why didn't they go for the p[ace where they found the gold and make their own riches

7 minutes in I said it's fake, a scam, prank. I was right. But does anybody want to buy a treasure map? It's genuin..lol.

If it was real a AI super computer would have solved it lol

This is a pretty good story considering. But if you think about it and the amount of gold that they found that they had turned into gold bars and silver bars and so on and so forth they had to have found something else. And if they happen to find say part of a hidden Templar treasure or maybe even part of the stuff that was stolen from the Mayans and the Incas that they brought back in 2 North America and hid in the desert regions in Colorado Utah Nevada New Mexico a friend of mine's dad bought a property in Utah about 11 years back. You won't hear about this in the mainstream but the Museum of Natural History and several other corporate entities decided to try to buy him out of his property because he found what was believed to be an old Mayan vault they found several Mayan leaders buried wrapped in gold caskets similar to The Mummies from ancient egypt. They also found almost 17 million in Gold Gems and silver. It was kept very quiet and the government has been harassing this family for the last 11 years they've been in and out of court several times fighting over who owns the treasure. I don't think the United States government has any right to it and they've wanted to return most of it to Central America because it does belong to the Mayan and Incan people😮❤❤❤ to me that speaks volumes of my friends family and the people that they are and I believe that they deserve a percentage of it for finding it but I deserve that the majority go back to the museums in Mexico for the people of Mexico

I’m pretty sure the first one I e locality is based off the Bible the first book of genesis and basically reads left to right and up an down and says the same thing over m over its in the water where the two rivers meet there’s actually three vaults one there one on the mountain and one inside something each one is marked with a symbol too. I think the one that’s been found in 2020 was just one of them. There’s a lot of words in the cipher that are the same like the word Sky and According and Vault and The and There but after a while I begin to see it’s the same thing and every other line is a sentence....don’t ask me how I figured that all out it just came to me....

whats the real story you think bealle knows fidel castro

Logistically, how does one r three men transport that much gold n silver from Co. to Va.? Seems like it'd take a whole mess of mules and a couple years... Lol

The Declaration of Independence is the code breaker. Treasures is gone.

How insensibile do you reckon your public is, that you use so much, so loud, so emotional music?

How did that freaky kid run through the forest & find a. Plate in the dirt 4 ft dwn. After holdig a copper ring. 😅

Uno reverse… the code breaking experts told a lie and found the treasure themselves.

Bet ur wrong that's not how code works or you have gold nope this is misleading

How often do you see a square stone buried out in the middle of nowhere. They should have kept digging. The young boy saw and described the treasure and that`s a clue that he may not have been told. I think they had the right place,but possibly,,the whole treasure thing was a hoax.

Tennessee soil

I bet it got taken within 1week of it being put into the ground...🤙🤙🤙🤙

& Clayton blew up the treasure lol wld of been too funny if that had happened..😂

Use old maps and trail names the indians named the routes not the Soldiers they had no idea where they were going only the indians how to find a safe escape

Guy:....6:05 "so if you can't figure out the code, then you can at least figure out the author of the code." (Loud commotion of profanity and flying food w/ couple h2o bottles launch toward blue shirt guy) Production Crew"...aahhh come on! "...this guy is useless "...oh quit it already! "...thought you said this guy wss the real deal "..ahh bullocks!! Director: "CUT!!! CUT!..CUT!!!....We are ALL going to take the day to learn the basics /INSERT/ : Goonies : Raiders (all)"

I think the couple that were codebreakers took all of it.

A hoax for sure.

Just going to ignore the 18 year old boy with supernatural abilities? Just proof of how Satan works.

Ya i think the Zodiac killer posted numbers, so find the zodiac killer..he has your treasure..good luck on your quest

Another tourists trap from the old days.

Is that Elonka?

1900 lb of gold in one pit ? how much ore did they swap ? how many mule trains did then have? lol BS

Beal wad thirty third degree freemason I can do it in twenty. Minutes ason yes it will locate the gold hidenn😮

Well they are hunting myths🙄😅

A genuine hoax . Great Grandpa is rolling in the grave with hysterical laughter 😂.
