Default The stuff your dreams were made of when you were young and played to be a pirate

I'm sure it already is or will be in English medias soon: divers in the Atlantic discovered and lifted the biggest treasure ever being found in the ocean: 17 tons of silver coins, worth 500 million dollars. The precise location is secret, but there is some reasoning that it could be some 70 miles offcoast of Southwest-England. The company envolved is Odyssey, being in business since 13 years. Code-name of the operation was "Black Swan"

Damn! Just imagine how many other treasures there are in the deep! I would love to drain the ocean and have a looksy... but I guess that would ruin the mystery of it.

I watched an intresting show other day on the Knights Templar and was looking at they're history and possible demise, and was intresting to see people still searching for that alleged treasure.

What a treasure it may have been...from the Ark of the Covenant to John the Baptists head and the Holy Grail....dats a good treasure story.
