I’m surprised there isn’t a topic on this yet.

Columbia found a huge cache of pirate booty.
They haven’t gone down to get any of it yet, as far as I know, but they can see it via cameras and that kind of stuff. They see the floor just littered with old cannons and gold coins and jewelry and diamonds and all kinds of stuff. They estimate that there is 5-17 BILLION dollars of gold down there.

Ahh, I did a search of topics that included the word “treasure” in the title, but nothing came up. Normally I’d merge, but that’s a GQ thread. Since this one isn’t, I’ll leave them be.
