The subject line of a post over on the Q4T forum simply says, "A third found..."

Well, I am very happy to tell you that a new casque had been dig out on Feb 25th at 9 h 55 am somewhere in the USA under the look of a park guard ranger.

I am very tired because of jetlag and a lot of turbulences with the plane flying back to Europe, when it was nearly impossible to sleep.

You will have detailed news and pictures to come next week-end, I hope so !

There are 9 other casques to find ! Please be patient for a few days until ì give you all details !

I just want to tell all my contempt, disdain and scorn to a "so called" hunter who had hard words about me, and said he has the IQ of... I don't remember what... A silly guy anyway !

HAPPY HUNTING TO ALL OF YOU !

Meteor (and Devin and Kaspius who are in the team of finders !)

I have no more information at this time.

Wow! That would be so exciting if it turns out to be correct! Thanks for posting catherwood!

From Dustin on FB (gave permission to post it here)

Meteor/Gerald Gay from Europe is the finder and has said he will share photos of the find--- possibly this weekend....


Others are going to the park now to see evidence of the dig...


Incredible!!!!!

From Matthew Sparks (permission given to share his image here)

He said his daughter went to the park and the only spot seen to be recently dug was the location at the end of the pole at the Verdi Statue.....

It is believed it was image 1 with verse 7 that led to the buried casque in San Francisco, Golden Gate Park, at the Verdi Statue-- at the area where the pole is pointing to in the above image.

Image 1/Verse 7:

Location of the Verdi Statue (thanks TxTH)-- next to highway 1 (near ace is high, running north but first across)

[catherwood]

ugh. It may have been a hoax after all. The situation is fluid, but this is the latest info I have seen online. (I do not have direct access to the Facebook group in which this might have been posted).

The casque in this photo looks to be a homebrew replica, and not even a good replica of the known finds, and also does not appear to have been in the ground very long.

[Jenny]

crazy development......

[TxTH]

So, this picture was released to someone on Q4T that requested information from the park dept. It shows Dr. Gay at the dig site which happens to be at Huntington Falls, not the Verdi Statue. Huntington Falls is located on Strawberry Hill at Stow Lake. His permit was specifically for the Verdi statue area. Maybe someone could confirm that the dig was actually at the Huntington location.

Uh..look closely at the "cloth" on the face of the box we see. I see lettering, steps and structure. i suspect another hoax.

No, this is

the same one.  It just turns out he dug in a different location than we thought.  There are other close up pictures on the Q4T site.

[SluggoZim]
