Although many ships are known to have been lost to the treacherous waters of Hell Gate, New York, there is one particular warship, the HMS Hussar, which seems to attract the most attention. That is because it is rumored to have gone down with a very large British military payroll, and the golden treasure of Guineas have never been recovered.

This episode of MW's Friday Five features the top five missing movie props worth thousands. Movie Memorabilia can be in the form of props, costumes, posters, scripts, or other objects connected to a film. Take for example a movie poster for, The Mummy. In 1997, it was auctioned off for 453,000. Which might not seem like much when you compare it to the costume for the Cowardly Lion in the Wizard of Oz film which went for over 3 million. Because collectors place such high values on these objects, a few are bound to get stolen or go missing. And often times they show up in the least expected places: like flea markets or dumpsters. Be on the lookout for them! Blog on MW: MW Friday Five: Top Five Missing Movie Props Worth Thousandsor watch the video: |

There are legendary lost treasures in almost every part of the world. Often times the stories about these treasures are a mixture of facts and fiction. It becomes difficult to discern what is truth the longer time passes, and sometimes the treasures become thought of as all fiction. However, once in a great while, one of these treasures are found which brings hope the others can be found as well. They are worth a read, or possibly more… MW hopes to share many of these. We start with five lost treasures of Pennsylvania. Watch it on video below or read the MW Blog: MW's Friday Five: 5 lost treasure of PA |

The Crater of Diamonds State Park features a 37 and a half acre field where the public is allowed to go and look for diamonds. They have been found in this section of land since 1906. The diamonds are found on the surface resulting from a volcanic eruption which happened millions of years ago pushing them there. The largest ever diamond found in the USA was found here!

One of the most interesting gold treasures at the British Museum is the Gold Mold Cape. It was listed as one of their top ten treasures in 2003 on BBC Television’s special episode of Meet the Ancestors. The Mold cape was discovered in 1833 at Mold, a small town in Flintshire, Wales. A group of workmen was quarrying for stone in an ancient burial mound when they made the surprising discovery. Other artifacts and skeleton associated with the cape were also found. It dates back to around 1600 BC. Watch on Video or read More on MW: Treasures of the Museum: The Gold Mold Cape |
