      The theory was that a train was robbed over 150 years ago and the gold hidden somewhere in the area, then lost/forgotten. So, if you know how much gold was on the train when it was robbed, that's how much you'd expect to find in the treasure stash.

      But also, if I'm a "treasure hunter" and I think I've stumbled across 7 tons of gold and my first impulse is to file a public record to that effect and turn the information over to the fucking cops... I'm sorry, bro. That one's on you.
