Cask 2 - Charleston SC

I was told that the only way digging for the cask could be authorized at WPG is if the request is coming as part of a formal archaeological survey sponsored by an accredited college or university, complete with a detailed dig plan that has been signed off on by the Preservation Society.

The most disappointing thing about the SF cask is that most every park in the city has undergone major renovation since the '80s. The only hope would be if it were buried in Russian Hill Park (you can see the backwards Gh, Alcatraz and the posts from here); I don't believe this park has been touched.

From this vantage point, the giant Betsy Ross Flagpole would have been right behind the viewer. The fountain pool matches the table-top very closely. The Lincoln Highway marker is a great match for the table-post and there is a silhouette of Lincoln in the drawing. The entire parking lot area when seen from above matches the woman's head perfectly. The crossed arms in the drawing match "Crossover Drive" in Golden Gate Park. Take a "giant step" from the "giant pole" would mean going to the south dropoff from the parking lot, towards Fulton Street (the inventor of the steam boat and "the object of Twain's attention"). The "J" of the flower stem matches John F. Kennedy Drive in Golden Gate park which passes under Highway 1 ("sounds from the sky near ace is high" which also goes "north, but first across"). The numbers match avenues that intersect the park. The site sits amid a golf course (golf balls in picture).

But this area was reconstructed and dug out for sprinkler installations since the '80s. Too bad, because I think this is the spot.

It's the Legion of Honor near the Golden Gate Park, not the Palace of Fine Arts which is over by Crissy Field.

Hi guys, new to the forum. I stumbled upon the secret and its treasure hunt about 2 months ago in a you tube clip. Since that day I have been intrigued by it. I live in Brooklyn NY in the Bensonhurst area. Close to, JJP park, Shore road park and Fort Hamilton high. While I believe all of these are possible locations I am not 100%. The picture and verse are so vague. Unlike the pics and verses in the 2 that have been found. There was EXACT images in the pics of landmarks close to dig site. I know I am new to this board and this search in general, but I have been searching and studying since that first day 2 months ago. I have even gone to all the locations I listed and I just don't see it clearly. That being said, I just wanted to introduce myself and let you guys know I'm in this now for the long haul, lol. Hopefully one day somebody does unearth one of these casques, it would be very exciting. Even if there is nomore jewl. And be more than happy to help anyone around the NYC area do some studying and scouting. I know I'd be open to any help I could get.


P.S. I purchased the kindle edition of book shortly after getting involved due to the used copies of the paperback going for over $100. Like I said I've mostly focused on NY and what is said to be the accompanying pic/verse. In doing so I noticed a few distinct differences. In the verse I see on most websites which I believe is directly from book, the word Nearby has its own line and people feel this is important. In kindle version Nearby does not have its own line, it is the last word on the line "Although the sign Nearby". Also in the pic, the space between the center and right onion dome on the websites, again I'm assuming directly from book, is curved and to me kind of looks like the map of state of NJ upside down, and there's a tiny white circle at the bottom. In the kindle edition the space is there but it's a straight line. Not curved at all and the white circle is not there, it is below the jewl in this pic. Not sure if any of this is important. I never read on any site I've looked at so far about anybody thinking the space looks like New Jersey. But I have read about the word Nearby being by itself. I just thought I'd throw it out there and if anyone has kindle edition and access to the actual book maybe you can go deeper on this. Thanks guys. Sorry for long first post.

Why the dunce cap? You honestly can say that the space between the center onion dome and right dome does not in ANY way resemble NJ?? Upside down like the tower in Cleveland pic. I'm not stating im convinced it does represent NJ or saying I think it's buried there. Just an observation. Others have come up with way more far out observations than that. And I'm only saying it cause I have the kindle edition and in this version the pic is different as well as the verse linked to this pic. Nearby is not alone on a line it's all one line , although the sign Nearby. That's different from original. Just wondering why

Urban Smurf is the only good part of this thread which means that, yeah, I like his postings more than anybody else’s and I can see how that might spark some jealousy among the pretenders to the throne here.
