This link from a "Google Alert" I have set up for "treasure" + "found"

Meet the gardener who dug up a buried treasure chest full of silver and gold coins

The hidden valuables were unearthed as part of a multistate treasure hunt created by an author who wanted to celebrate American history and the outdoors

If I found that in my garden, it wouldn't make the news... some people...

Hmm. So anyone else know about books that give hints to buried treasure like this one?
In the article they mentioned "Lady Liberty's Treasure Hunt" by Michael Cloherty O'Connell.

We all know about Forrest Fenn's.

There is another one "There's Treasure Inside" by Jon Collins-Black

Google also listed the following:
"The Secret" by Byron Preiss
"Masquerade" by Kit Williams

Anyone know of any others?

I looked for the one in St Augustine in " The Secret" more than once. What is interesting is if you study the painting closely, all the animals you see in the pick hidden.
