Description

Have you ever hidden something, and then forgotten where it was? Imagine if you buried a treasure, but couldn't find it when you went back to look. This has really happened! Here is information about real treasure lost in all fifty states, and even some in Canada! Read and be amazed. You know what? This book could make you the richest person in the world. AMAZING TRUE STORIES: * Coins and bits of treasure wash up on Florida beaches more often than anywhere else in the United States. * The Great Lakes are freshwater and are extremely cold. These water conditions help preserve sunken treasures better than warm saltwater oceans do. * In the United States alone there is $300 billion' worth of lost treasure waiting to be found!
