Summary of Hunt and How to Get Involved

A summary of the 12th Plate treasure hunt is Here:

12th Plate Treasure Hunt


Basically, one American Gold Eagle Coin (1ozGold Value-over $1000) is hidden somewhere in Raleigh NC. Registering for hunt will allow you access to a 'Parchment' which hold clues to solve for exact location of coin.

Here's the link to Register (for $2): Get Scroll

I still want to get into this one, but I'm pretty much wrapped up in other things right now.
My daughter is considering a move to North Carolina and is taking a very short trip there in January to check out Raleigh.
She's not into treasure hunts, she's a very down to earth type, but also very flexible. I'm sure she'd want to go with me to check out places if I visit, assuming she moves there.

Heck, it's time to broaden my horizons! I have connections in that area.

Hi all. I just registered here so plan to drop in when I can and get involved.

Thanks for posting this hunt Jenny, I've already spent many hours deciphering what I can inbetween researching the Bossall Treasure. I live in the UK so I can't get eyes on the ground, but I'll keep you updated on my progress nonetheless.
👍

I think this hunt is over. I wouldn't pay for the information at this point.

I just chatted with the creator and the hunt is STILL ON and COIN in place! The Game is afoot! I was just in Raleigh on the 18th and will be posting images soon.....

I had a friend enter and thought it ended December 31st. They emailed the organizer and didn't get a response. Maybe it was extended? Not sure, it is only $2, so why not. good luck!

How funny, just checked with the searcher and you are exactly right. Admin for president! It is the little details.....

Hi all! I live in Raleigh and was pleasantly surprised to find out that this treasure hunt is going on! I've been puzzling over the scroll for the past few days and am trying to figure out the best way to approach it, as it seems like there's a lot going on and I feel like I'm getting too hung up on one or two things and missing the bigger picture. Anyway, if anyone wants to discuss or has questions about Raleigh that someone local can help with, I'm game!

[Jenny]

Awesome starlight!

We will have to get some discussion going with this hunt. It would be great to get it solved.

I would throw out that the bars look to be a specific set of streets in down town Raleigh. I tried to view in google maps. I don't know the area so not sure if being a local would help or if that grid is known.

Also, take the PDF and De layer it, you will see the symbol, dinosaur, numbers etc.

The two cowboys are a lift from some standards art, I think it builds a word.

I think the stick men may have something to do with Native American symbols.

I need to find my notes, I can throw out some other stuff. I helped a friend a few months back and gave some thoughts but haven't put much time into it.

So True!

I find working on many helps with all..... different perspectives and thoughts needed for working on one hunt sometimes sparks ideas on things to try for others....
