That is cursed gold. I wouldn’t touch it.
Let’s see what happens to those who took it.

Undoubtedly. We know of so many testimonials of their being thrown in waters.

Hang on - isn’t this THE gold wreck - containing the vast majority of the gold dug up during the gold rush?

1000 oz is what they recovered with a single dive mission.
There’s about 14 tons down on that wreck. And as you say, good luck to them!

The first parts of this story (the shipwreck, location, and recovery of the first part of the gold were told in a wonderful book: “Ship of Gold in the Deep Blue Sea” which I recommend to any Freeper.
One of the best books I’ve ever read.
I’m waiting for the next book, about how the leader cheated his investors, and why no more efforts to recover were made until now.

Nobody “throws” their firearms in the water...
It’s just those darn canoes are so “tippy”.

Undoubtedly. We know of so many testimonials of their being thrown in waters.That's way to shallow to find mine.

You’re right, I forgot the expression, “accidental loss.”
