BURIED TREASURE IN YOUR NECK OF THE WOODS CULPEPER COUNTY, VIRGINIA
Today’s story is of a Civil War treasure hidden in Culpeper County Virginia by Confederate General John Mosby and his raiders. This goes out to my Friend John over at DiggingIntoYesterday

Also I have included a list of Gold Mines I found for the state at the end of the video for those of you looking for something closer.
Good Luck, Happy Huntin’ Keep on Diggin’ It!
Do you have any info on Campbell County va, Lynchburg or Amherst county
Got to be some treasure stories from western Montana?
Second time even better!
When was Mosby promoted to general?
Thank you Lee! Wow lots of info. Now I am wondering if the story I have heard from a few locals is even true. Two that I have heard from about this "gold thief" stories match pretty good, so hard to tell.
I cant believe (well yes I can) how many old mines were out here. I knew there was a lot but wow what you listed was a lot. The place I found the silver dollar recently is very close to one that you listed. I been wanting to go there, but the land owner lives out of state. It’s in some woods very very close to where I found that coin. In fact, I was detecting on the old road that was there that went right by it in the old days. So tempting to just go in the woods, but I’m too paranoid. Don’t need no trouble 🙂
Really appreciate all you put into this! Good info. Wish I had the nerve to ask for permission to some of these places. They are so close by.
I am going to have to do some searching on Mosby a little more. See if there is some more clues as to where this might have taken place 🙂
Appreciate you doing this!! Now I have some searching to do lol
Hope all is well your way!
Take care, good luck and happy hunting.
