All language subtitles for The.Curse.of.Oak.Island.S13E03.720p.HEVC.x265-MeGusta

Tonight, on the curse of Oak Island.

It's a brand new area we haven't
explored on the western side.

Oh! Oh! Here we go! Yeah!

Look what I'm getting here.

Oh!

So I've done a CT scan. You can see it
faintly right here.

Oh!

We'll all be damned. Yeah. That might
tell a story.

Whoa! Whoa!

We're probably into the void.

If there's the one thing, he could have
it in that four barrel right now.

Yeah. There you go.

There is an island in the North Atlantic
where people have been looking for an

incredible treasure for more than 200
years.

So far, they have found a stone slab
with strange symbols carved into it, man

-made workings that date to medieval
times, and a lead cross whose origin may

connected to the Knights Templar.

To date, six men have died trying to
solve the mystery.

And, according to legend, one more will
have to die before the treasure

can be found.

Okay, team. This is the part of this
whole venture I like honestly the most.

Another bright morning has dawned on Oak
Island, and in the laboratory, Rick and

Marty Lagina and members of their team
are gathered to learn more about a

discovery.

Catchy and I found something that we
thought was really, really cool.

It's a coin for sure, and we're about to
find out what exactly this is.

Ooh.

Wowzer. One week ago.

Marty and Katya Drake discovered a coin
with a curious design on Lot 5.

And in the same area where the team
previously found five Roman coins that

be as much as 2 ,000 years old.

But yes, I've done an XRF. So
compositionally, it's copper -based.

iron. There is calcium. But you see
there's a silver content also, and

good sign. That usually indicates.

An older alloy.

That's amazing.

Emma says the composition of the coin
has silver, and so I think it could be

very valuable. Everything about this,
once again, makes you feel like, geez,

not wasting my time and money here.

This is for real.

I popped it into the PT scan to get a
better look at it.

Whoa.

That's ancient. Oh, my God.

the figure standing left.

And we do have the lettering, office in
A, which is N for novum, so

ninth. It's the ninth workshop.

Can't tell which region because the mid
mark is gone, but that would be like in

the Roman vicinity.

And if you take a look at the other
side, so you have the head bus facing

And you can see it faintly right here.
It looks like a crown.

And a really distinctive pointed, like,
I don't know, it's a really sharp nose,

sharp chin.

And these features, you only see them
with Claudius II.

So you have the workshop, you have the
composition, and

then you have Claudius II, and that puts
it more towards, like, 250, 270

AD. So this is a Roman coin.

Yeah.

Without a doubt.

Without a doubt.

Marcus Aurelius Claudius, also known as
Claudius II, reigned as the emperor of

Rome from 268 to 270 AD.

The team has never found evidence of
habitation on Oak Island dating back to

that era.

So how did the six Roman coins get here?

We'll all be damned. Yeah.

We have very few certainties on this
island. Well, there's one. That is a

coin. I mean, we used to say it with a
little bit of hesitation, like, you

we're having a hard time believing in
ourselves, but we can't discard it

anymore. It does have a high surrounding
silicon layer.

Does that imply it's been there a long
time?

Yeah. How about that?

What were the other metals that Dr.

Spooner was finding in the water in the
money pit?

Lead, tin, copper, and zinc.

So those are all elements that are found
in the coin.

The silver Pit Blado coin is 1367 to
1383 and has similar elements

too.

The fact that the composition of the so
-called Portuguese Pit Blado coin and

the Roman coins match the traces of
precious metals that were detected deep

the Money Pit area raises an important
question. Could they all be related?

I have always believed.

that what happened here in Oak Island
happened long ago.

And so it's not out of the bounds to
suggest that this might be part of the

treasure, right? Yeah.

The interesting thing now is when was it
deposited?

Yeah, exactly. That is what would be
interesting to know.

I think Sandy Campbell can certainly
tell us something about that coin. We

should have him look into this further.

Well, as you often tell me, Marty,
that's a great find, but you guys need

back out to Lot 5 and find some more.
Exactly.

Let's do it. Let's go.

See you later. Thank you. Good job.

Later that morning, as the team prepares
their next drill location in the Money

Pit area.

So, as we know, it's a very aggressive
search agenda this year. We have a lot

things going on. I know you...

Done your homework, you have the permit.

Rick meets with Steve Guptill, Scott
Barlow, and Billy Gerhart in the Oak

Research Center to plan another major
investigation, a large -scale dig in the

triangle -shaped swamp.

The swamp has been incredibly generous
to us in terms of finding things.

Think about the timelines that have been
associated with the swamp.

1200s, 1300s, 1400s.

We've always thought that the bog held
secrets, and those secrets might have

something to do with the money pit,
right? Yeah.

During the past decade, Rick, Marty, and
the team have uncovered numerous stone

structures in the swamp.

These include a massive paved area near
the center of the bog, which has been

scientifically dated to the 13th
century, a stone road in the southeast

which may be more than 500 years old and
is believed to be of Portuguese origin,

and a cobblestone pathway in the
northern region, which led the team to

vault -like feature that has been dated
to as early as the 17th century.

We found some incredibly unique things
in the swamp, things we haven't been

to explain as of yet, but it suggests
numerous groups may have deposited

here on the island.

Once you understand the totality of the
work in the bog, then you can apply

maybe a possible connection to the money
pit.

And who was behind this mystery?

So, Steve, what are your areas of
interest?

So I have an area I'd like to start us
at.

It's just west of the paved area. You
can see it here.

It's a brand new area we haven't
explored on the western side.

That end of the swamp is kind of like
the area around the vault, right? You

know, we traveled across it a hundred
times, didn't know the vault was there.

You know, I think that the same types of
finds can exist in that corner.

Hopefully there's another one, and
hopefully it's not empty.

Yep.

We drain the swamp, and I think all that
really remains is, you know, get the

excavators in place and start digging.

Yep.

It's good to work.

Later that day.

All right, guys, west inside of the
swamp, brand -new area for us.

Rick meets with members of the team to
begin their new investigation in the

western region of the swamp.

We're only 180 feet off the paved area.
That's just straight east of us.

Yeah, and I love those dates from the
paved area. It's 1200s, and we've

seen a certain coin this year, a
Portuguese coin from the 1300s. We might

for a bit of pork and cheese.

Every year, the swamp surprises us.

The bar every year keeps raising, right?

Yeah.

Let's get digging with it, Billy.

I'm really excited to be back in the
swamp.

It's been good to us in the past. We've
found a lot of really nice artifacts in

the area.

And hopefully we are going to find some
artifacts today.

Oh, it's clean at the moment.

What have we got here?

Steak. Did you see that, Billy? You just
moved the steak. Yep.

While digging near the western edge of
the Oak Island Swamp, Rick Lagina and

members of the team have just discovered
an interesting clue.

Is that one of the sharpened old wooden
steak posts, Rick?

Yeah, it looks like it.

What do you think?

It does look like one of those older
style ones, the way it's cut like that.

That ain't saw.

No, that's a... That's cut.

Yep. A hand -cut wooden stake?

Curiously, the team discovered a number
of similar stakes one year ago in the

center of the swamp, lining the cobble
path.

These stakes were carbon -dated to as
early as the 17th century.

and led them to the vault -like feature.

So that would be your first connection
that this potentially at one point in

time was about.

So that could be a really old wood
stake.

Is it possible that the team has
uncovered evidence of another pathway?

If so, just what might it lead to?

What have we got here?

Look at that.

That's definitely a stake there.

Yeah, there's one right there.

Yeah. Oh, yeah. Good eye, Rick.

Oh, that's a little mini work about,
isn't it? Like the ones we've seen in

north side of the swamp.

And the dating on those came back from
1630s all the way to mid -1700s. The

question is, what do all these stakes
mean?

This stake is strikingly similar to the
stakes that we found in the north end.

The stakes might be referencing some
work that is yet undiscovered in the

It is incredibly exciting.

It's odd to have so many stakes in one
area, right?

Yep. We need to date these to really
understand their importance here in a

tight area.

Yeah. But you still need to find
artifacts.

Oh, yeah. The metals will tell the
story, I suppose.

You know, I'm open for coins.

Cross their fingers.

As Rick and the team proceed with their
excavation in the swamp, several hundred

yards to the west on Lot 5.

It almost feels like this is that top
layer of soil because it stops, but I

notice it's more gravelly when you get
over there, but that could be from that

little pile. It's from that pile, I
think.

Archaeologist Fiona Steele and other
members of the team continue their

investigation of a mysterious rounded
feature near the shoreline.

Okay, your turn for the coolest find
ever. Okay, ever.

In recent years, the team has uncovered
evidence suggesting that several

different groups conducted secret
activities here at different times,

possibly hiding valuables on the island.

These include a number of buttons and
Venetian trade beads that may be

to the Knights of Malta, a religious
military order that descended from the

Knights Templar.

Lot 5 is an example of the extraordinary
complexity of this island and what

happened here.

The multi -generational theory fits with
a lot of the dates we found.

I want to keep going because I want to
figure this out.

Oh, my God. Look at this.

Might be a pipe stem.

Hey, pipe stem.

Oh, that's great. That's got a really
small borehole, like really small.

You can actually get an idea of the date
range from the size of the borehole.

So if you get a smaller borehole, it's
more likely a more recent pipe stem. But

if you get a really big borehole, it can
age it quite a bit. I always have stuff

with me that we can use for this.

This is what we use to check the
boreholes with.

All right, so this one is the 464th,
which is what I'm expecting.

Let's see. And look at that. That fits
perfectly.

So that's saying that this pipe stem was
made sometime between 1753 and 1800,

which actually fits in exactly with the
mean date range of all the artifacts

that we're finding here.

Nice. I think that's pretty cool.

The artifacts we have in general from
Lot 5, these artifacts still predate.

So they predate the discovery of the
money pit. To me, that's what makes our

work on Lot 5 so significant.

Wow, I'm glad we found that. That's
great.

Tansy, look what I'm getting here.

Check this out.

Pottery. Oh, wow.

The big boy.

So we're going to take it out in two
pieces.

There's one.

So shiny. Isn't that great?

Magic. Oh!

That's gorgeous. That's really pretty.

Wow. Hold that one. Let's get the other
piece up.

There we go.

So pretty.

Wow. Those would go together.

Look how big that bowl would have been.

It had to have been a big utilitarian
type of bowl. It was probably used for

food purposes, preparation of some sort,
whether it was breads or preserved

fruits. I find with these coarse
earthenwares, it could be anywhere from

1800, but this little design on it will
help date it.

Good job.

Fragments of an ornate earthenware bowl
that may have been used to contain food?

There are no records that any settlers
ever lived on Lot 5.

So if Fiona is correct that this pottery
may date back to the 17th century, it's

a potential clue that could help
identify who was here.

The things that we've been finding on
Lot 5 have been giving us more of an

indication of multi -occupational use of
the lot itself.

That's pretty blatant and evident.

So it's getting more and more curious as
we're going.

Every piece adds to the puzzle and tells
us more and more.

That's great.

Beautiful find.

The next day.

The find is quite remarkable.

Larry, I would think you would have to
agree.

Finding that is incredibly impressive.
Oh, absolutely.

Rick and members of the team meet once
again in the lab regarding another find

made two weeks ago on Lot 5.

Tansy, we thank you for that.

It's stunningly beautiful. It is.

An ornate glass bead that Tansy Rudnicki
uncovered in the rounded feature.

Laird, Emma, tell us what this is and
what it may mean.

So I do have an XRF result.

So the composition, we have a whole
bunch of elements in it.

The color is due to the copper content
that you see right here.

So that's what makes it a lovely, lovely
blue.

But here's the compositional averages
and the comparisons with other artifacts

found on Oak Island.

Our bead is the one in blue.

The composition of the glass itself, the
closest match that it lines up with

are the Venetian beads that we've
collected over the years.

It would be interesting to know if any
of these are associated with the

that was going on with the Knights of
Malta.

It would be interesting to know if any
of these are associated with the

that was going on with the Knights of
Malta.

So you'd just be curious to see if maybe
they brought some beads with them. They

would have 100 % brought beads with them
to trade with the indigenous people in

that area.

In the Oak Island lab, Emma Culligan and
Laird have just informed the team that

it's possible that the glass venetian
bead found on Lot 5 could be connected

the Knights of Malta.

So it's what we call a seed bead for
obvious reasons. It's the size of a

seed.

They were introduced in the second half
of the 1600s.

It would be interesting to know if any
of these have ever been found at Fort

Point because, as we all know, Isaac
Durazly came over and made his capital

the Le Havre River.

In 1632, a French naval captain and
prominent member of the Knights of

named Isaac de Rosalie, helped establish
the French colony of Acadia, which is

now known today as Nova Scotia.

Curiously, de Rosalie established his
headquarters at Fort Point on the Le

River, just 15 miles south of Oak
Island.

If Venetian beads have been discovered
at Fort Point, could that offer more

evidence of a connection between the
Knights of Malta and the Oak Island

mystery?

We can check with the archaeologists at
Four Points to see what they may have

for beads that were recovered from their
archaeology.

That'd be great.

Strange as it sounds, that little simple
bead might tell a story.

So thank you, Emma. Thank you, Laird.
Having said that, we'd better get out

to it.

Thank you. See you later.

Later that day, as the investigation in
both the swamp

And on lot 5, continue.

J .5, 8 .5, guys.

All right. We're still about 12 feet
above what we conventionally think of

top of the solution channel.

Over at the money pit area, the core
drilling operation reaches a depth of

nearly 140 feet in a new borehole known
as J .5, 8 .5.

Here. The team hopes to penetrate the
natural cavity known as the solution

channel and recover evidence of
treasure.

Previous holes have shown us how
convoluted it is. We've run into actual

within it and soft spot below 190.

Hopefully this one will get into an even
looser area and some kind of a chest.

Yep. One full of silver coins.

We live in hope.

Did a treasure fall down to the depths
of the Solution Channel? We don't know.

You don't want to be driven by
possibilities.

You want to be driven by facts.

And the fact is, right now, we are
nowhere near done exploring the

of this void.

And we need to continue to be very
disciplined in our approach.

But we mustn't relent.

We mustn't give up.

We're not there yet.

I want the one thing.

That was interesting. What happened?

He just lost his rods.

That means we're probably into the void.

I'll ask him how far they seem to have
dropped.

Adam. Hey.

How far did they drop?

About eight feet.

Okay. That's into a loose area?

I'm assuming.

Yeah, that's what we're looking for.

Go get it.

Thanks.

Here.

Hey, Terry. What do you say? That was
interesting.

So we're into a loose area, 148 to 158
or so. The rods just dropped right in.

Now we go deeper to see what they find.

I mean, I've got my fingers crossed
here, gentlemen. We are in a really

interesting point.

Let's hope.

This is exactly what we're looking for.
We're dropping down into an open space

in the solution channel below 150 feet.
We trace this to the bottom. We can find

a lot of amazing things before bedrock.

Whoa.

That is an extraordinary washed -out
void of material.

It's 168.

Wow. The rods were 15 feet down.

15 feet? 15 feet. So is that a solution
channel, you think?

Huh. Exactly so. That's the kind of void
and open space where you could lose a

whole lot of treasure.

So out of the 20 feet, that's all you
got.

Wow. Yeah.

So that bodes well, gentlemen.

This is getting very interesting.

It's not over yet.

I'm going to run the pinpointer over
this.

So when we pull a 20 -foot run and we
only have a few feet of material in it,

that says we've passed into a relative
void where only a small amount of the

solid material has been encountered. And
if we hit that kind of a situation, we

know we're into the void in the solution
channel.

Clear. That tells us we could encounter
an artifact anywhere between there and

the bedrock.

Adam, how are we doing?

I'm at 188. Wow. And I haven't hit
anything hard.

All we got is a loose void. That's it.

Thanks.

What do you got?

So he has dropped another 20 feet. He
went from 168 to 188, and he's still got

nothing solid. So he's going to push
forward from 188.

to 198 to see if we can hit something
solid?

Yeah. Given what we know, there's a 30
-foot void, give or take.

That's exciting.

I think objective number one is to find
the bottom of the solution channel.

Absolutely.

We're excited because what is below us
right here has not been searched by

anyone ever, and we're going to be the
first people to look at that.

Hopefully, we'll find something at the
bottom because...

Treasure is very dense and will drop
through the material in the solution

channel and settle at the bottom.

We have a core, gentlemen.

The sample that we have in that core
barrel is very important. We've just

down through a huge amount of loose
area. If there's a debris field, if

a broken up treasure chest, if there's
the one thing, he could have it in that

core barrel right now.

Let's go.

168 to 198 right in front of us,
gentlemen.

We're looking for aspects of the debris
field that have fallen treasure, yeah?

Exactly. There he is. Hey, Rick. Hey,
Rick. How you doing? Hello.

Very loose area here, Rick.

168 to 198 and J .5, 8 .5.

Okay. Let's see it. All right.

In the Money Pit area, Rick has joined
the team to inspect fresh drilling cores

recovered from the Solution Channel.

This material is relatively watery, void
-like material.

And from 198, we should go to about 218
or 215 before we hit bedrock, right?

So it should be another swath of
interesting material at the bottom of

solution chamber.

Unfortunately, no hits with the
pinpointer.

Well, let's see what the next one looks
like. I think this next run is the most

important. That would be the hope.

This hole in particular, it's soft
enough or something very heavy to have

migrated downward to the point where it
would fall to the lowest possible point,

i .e. the bottom of the solution
channel.

We just have to find it.

It's getting ridiculous.

Like I'm 228 right now.

That's so weird, man.

Adam, how we doing?

228.

228? 228.

Wow, that's one for the record books.

And loose all the way down? Yeah.

Nothing? Well, it's loose, but I can
feel it. Do you think you're going to be

able to retrieve that? It's going in the
rods right now. Okay, thank you. Yep.

Well, you don't see that every day.

228, no bedrock.

What? What are they going through, just
water?

Well, it's loose material as well. It
looks like he's going to be able to get

sample, so it looks like we're going to
have 30 feet more of torque coming up.

I agree. It's highly unusual, in fact,
that you're not in bedrock at 228.

Incredibly interesting.

Yeah.

Previously drilled boreholes that have
reached the bottom of the solution

channel have suggested that the
mysterious natural cavity has a maximum

some 220 feet.

However, has the team now discovered
evidence that it could be deeper in some

areas, presenting a whole new challenge
to finding the believed treasure?

The solution channel is wide, it's
expansive, it's deep.

I think it's a little bit larger and
certainly deeper than we had thought.

Generally, the bottom is 218, 214.

Well, we're 14 feet past that.

I think what it tells us is we have a
lot more work to do to truly understand

the solution channel. It certainly
presents some unique challenges.

Will there be issues that arise that we
haven't anticipated?

Sure, there will be problems, but we're
not going to give up. It's that simple.

Jump in and I'll guide you in.

If there were something of some
significance.

it would easily fall through what we
just had on the table.

Exactly. Yes.

Here we go.

Let's hope it's a good one.

You can be very hopeful. Look, Peter
thinks it's hopeful.

I'm on board. I'm cautiously optimistic.

There you go. That was the word. There
you go.

The drill bar has basically fallen
almost 100 feet with no hindrance.

Your immediate thought is, well, here
absolutely is the collapse zone.

What other explanation is there?

And if there's a clap zone, then we may
be close to something.

So 198 all the way down to 228 and no
bedrock yet, but a

lot of loose material. So you've got a
lot of work to do here with your

pinpointer, I think, Charles. Hell yeah.
Okay, so for 30 feet of drilling, we

got about 12 feet of loose material
clear.

Unfortunately, in this section, we
didn't hit it. Let's see where he hits

bottom, and we'll see what he brings
back up.

And he's pounding that bedrock.

There's a nice white powder.

That's bedrock.

Let's see what we got up above the
bedrock.

Here we go.

What do we got?

228, 233.

The rock was at 229.

So, yeah, it looks like you got about a
foot of loose material.

It's a good four feet of bedrock.

That's clear.

J .5, 8 .5.

Things have come to an end here at 233
below grade.

We hit bedrock at 229 below grade.

It gave us information.

Exactly.

What do you think about this, Adam?

It's been the most interesting one to me
to date. Bottom line is I'm an

Eisenboots guy. When the driller of
record says this is something different,

can put your nickel on that.

It's different.

Absolutely.

Based on what we're seeing, the theory
that the treasure would fall deep down

the solution channel still is alive and
well. One of the reasons for doing the

sonic drill program was, okay, where's
an area where we might put a case on it?

Incremental information is incredibly
important to help us determine that.

We need to make a decision where we go
next.

As the team plots their next borehole
location in the Money Pit area.

So, Sandy, thank you for coming down
once again.

Appreciate it, Rick.

Rick and Doug meet with coin expert
Sandy Campbell in the research center to

his analysis of the Roman coin that was
recently found on Lot 5.

You know, as soon as I pick the coin up,
it's quite obvious what it is.

This is clearly Roman Empire period.

It's in remarkable condition for a coin
that's been buried for quite a while.

I think we'll need a CT to get a more
definitive portrait.

Laird and Emma have actually provided us
with a couple of images from the CT

scanner. Let's have a look.

Yeah, the CT is pretty clear.

You know, the reverse is quite
spectacular.

Very definitive legend.

You know, somebody's standing holding an
oak leaf.

The obverse here is probably Claudius,
which makes it 3rd

century AD.

That's what Laird and Emma said?

Yeah. No question in your mind. It's a
Roman coin.

No, no question.

It's a pretty obvious design and period
of Roman Empire.

But of all the Roman, this is perhaps
the most remarkable piece that's been

found to date.

What do you make of Roman coins being
found on this island? How many Roman

have been found elsewhere in Nova
Scotia?

I would say nothing that I'm aware of.

I'm puzzled how so many Roman coins
could land on this island.

The question that would be in my mind
is, who brought it?

Roman coins traded as currency into the
1500s quite regularly.

They were monetarily used.

And that's what possibly brought them to
this island, in my opinion.

Who brought them is a different story.

Here's a scenario that starts to paint
itself in my mind, though.

The people that were carrying out the
work to create the money pit may have

carrying this as currency in their
pocket.

I think that is a distinct possibility.

Incredible.

If you have people on the island
building...

for the works, perhaps in the money pit,
and they're losing their personal

possessions along the way.

These coins might have been actually the
pocket change of the workers working to

deposit a treasure in the money pit. So
this to me may not be the actual

treasure they were depositing, but it's
evident. Yeah, it could be.

In the Oak Island Research Center, Sandy
Campbell has just validated the

possibility.

that the Roman coins found on Lot 5 may
have been dropped by those who buried a

treasure in the money pit.

I wouldn't discount it.

You know, 1300, 1400, this stuff was in
use all through Europe.

If you walked into any merchant anywhere
in the world, you know, whether it's

the New World or the Old World, that had
monetary value.

It's mind -numbing that this stuff...

continues to get unearthed.

One of the interesting things about
Roman coins is they've often been found

places we've investigated the activities
of the Templars, right?

Another twist.

Here we have the coins.

The Roman coins have been found in
Iceland.

During their numerous trips to European
sites, where the Templar order was

believed to have operated between the
12th and 14th centuries, the team has

shown Roman coins from the same eras
that they have found on Oak Island.

This is 4th century.

4th century. Yeah. We were told ours
were from 5th century AD.

Those coins were in active use right up
through the 1200s.

then they could be associated with
activity of the Templars.

This, sitting here on this table, might
be representative of that cultural

context. Perhaps with Nolan's cross and
then the so -called Pibleto coin.

Right.

Is it possible that the ancient Roman
coins could actually represent another

Templar connection to the Oak Island
mystery?

And could they be related?

to other possible Templar structures,
such as Nolan's Cross, as well as

discoveries, like the silver Portuguese
coin.

The wealth associated with a possible
treasure in the money pit might have

gathered from all over the world.

And Templars, as we have learned,
assimilated power, influenced

wealth, and specifically knowledge.

So it may be that this coin is Roman.

But you have to take the clues and the
data as presented to you, but you have

analyze that data with a very open mind
because it could all be connected.

We need to rededicate ourselves to
continue to look intensively at Lot 5

adjacent lots and the money pit for
irrefutable proof.

So,

Sandy, thank you for coming down. Really
appreciate it, as always.

I appreciate the invite.

Again, it's always interesting to see
something new and different.

It just deepens the mystery, in my
opinion.

It does do that. Yeah.

It's incredibly interesting.

Roman coins were flown on Oak Island.

It's just more bizarre.

Later that day.

It's a good place to start, Charles.

Yep. Back on the trail of artifacts,
mate, on lock four. I love it.

Charles joins Gary on Lot 4, encouraged
by the new discoveries of the glass bead

and the Roman coin.

You ready to get stuck in, mate? Let's
do it. Okay, let's start here. You find

them, I'll dig them.

Rick has instructed them to search an
area on nearby Lot 4, where excavated

spoils from the round feature on Lot 5
have been deposited.

It's a bit of a jumpy signal, Charles.

It's more than likely going to be a
piece of elongated iron.

You never know.

Let's get stuck back in. You've diggled
some dirt around.

I think it's out.

Yeah, I believe so.

Yeah, just a little nail up.

Damn it.

Keep going.

Yep.

Ooh, we've got a nice banging signal
here, Charles.

Ooh, I like the sound of that, Charles.
Nice one?

Yeah, a real good one. This could be a
coin or a button.

Let's hope.

This has got potential, mate.

Just there, please. Right there? Okay.

It's a lot of roots.

Yep.

X marks the spot.

Yep.

Take a look -see.

All right.

Let's see what we got.

Let's see it.

It's in the end, mate.

And I can feel it.

This is the fun part, mate.

Seeing what we've got.

Oh! Oh!

Oh!

What have we found, Charles?

Look at that, mate.

Some kind of lead strip.

That's interesting.

While searching for clues on Lot 4,
Charles and Gary have just made a

discovery. Look at the beveled edges. I
see that.

You know what this reminds me of? What's
that?

It reminds me of an arm of a lead cross.

Really? It looks like there's an hole at
the top. Yeah. If you were making a

cross, a lead, and you want to tack it
onto something, it would need holes.

So we could be in Templar country.

Yeah.

A lead artifact with similar features to
the 14th century lead cross.

that was found at Smith's Cove in 2017,
members of the Oak Island team have seen

this exact cross design at 12th and 14th
century Templar -related sites in Dome,

France, in Camerano, Italy, and near
Reykjavik, Iceland.

And perhaps even more incredible is the
fact that in 2022,

While investigating the mysterious round
feature just a few yards away on Lot 5,

Gary and Jack Begley unearthed a lead
barter token that was scientifically

matched to the lead crown.

You see that?

This looks really old.

Yeah.

Is it possible that Gary and Charles
have found another key clue that could

prove a Templar connection to the Oak
Island mystery?

Let's put this in the bag.

where it belongs.

Even a little piece of lead like this
could tell a really big story. It's one

those metals you can have tested and you
never know.

Imagine if this piece of lead is a match
to a certain medieval artifact we

recovered in Smiths Co.

Medieval lead cross, baby!

I'm sure there's more artifacts waiting
for us, but...

We need to get to the lab. I can't wait
to see what this is. Let's go, man. All

right, mate. Go dig it.

Excellent. Absolutely brilliant.

Generations of treasure hunters have
believed that something of immense value

lies buried in the money pit.

Now Rick, Marty, and their team may have
not only touched a piece of those

fabled riches, but have found incredible
new clues.

that could help identify just who was
behind this mystery.

So despite the murky questions that
remain in the Solution Channel, this

will keep searching for the truth, no
matter how deep they have to dig.

Next time on The Curse of Oak Island.

Hold it! Whoa, whoa!

Another feature in the slug. What in the
world is happening? This feature could

help us unwrap the whole mystery.

Something this small has fallen to the
bottom of the solution channel. Here it

is right there. Could be a chunk of a
coin. It's got some sort of design on

If it's a silver coin, that's treasure.

It's what we're looking for.

Be prepared to be gobstruck.

This is going to be special. This is
quite pure. Yes, absolutely.
