The Solution to The Secret: A Treasure Hunt by Byron Priess

The Solution to The Secret: A Treasure Hunt by Byron Priess

The Secret: A Treasure Hunt Solution

In 1984 Byron Priess hid 12 casques which could be found using clues in his book The Secret: A Treasure Hunt and to this day 3 of those hidden casques have been found. Today I’m giving you what I believe to be the solution to one of those mysteries. Image 1 of The Secret features a woman in a long gown with a dragon design. On the left of this woman is a single red rose with a spiraling stem. Above these features are waterfalls in the background with a prison like window at the tip top of it all. All of these clues in the image are clues to where Byron Priess hid the casque that contains the key for the pearl in The Secret: A Treasure Hunt.

The Secret: A Treasure Hunt has 12 poems however each of these poems are not officially assigned to any specific images. For image 1 there is a public consensus that says verse 7 is the correct verse to go with it and that is the verse I use to find the final location of Byron Priess’ treasure casque (the one for the pearl). While reading through verse 7 I go into detail as to what each of the clues are leading us to.

While I went reading through the internet in search for clues for The Secret: A Treasure Hunt I read through 4 main sites which are listed below. However, if you believe this to be a repeated solve that exists somewhere else online I’d say that’s not likely. I must have read through 20-30 sites and blogs talking about this but none led to my final location. I do believe I found the rest place of another one if Byron Priess’ casques. But what do you think?

The following are the sites I read and skimmed through to come to my final solve. While they assisted a bit here and there they overall led to other final locations in their solves.

    Dude that was great! Can you imagine if in fact the treasure is where you deduced it was? Great analytical skills!

    This is really cool! Do you have any hints/tips for new starters in this treasure hunt? I got the book and am not quite sure where to go.

    Secondly you didn’t have the immigration group for the site where the casque is…that has been proven by the finds of the 3 solved and bp stated immigration has to do with the site….why ignore some of the other locations in image …like for example the stem is Fairmount logo…if you look down the street is the chinatown part of sf….also not far is cathay house

    First off this is why the Japanese hints are so important…high post are three states they are wooden …so your first idea is shot down immediately right there…but doesn’t mean your wrong three post could have been not far away in 1982

    Do you find there’s a difference between the copy book and the authentic book … I’m hearing people complain that the copy of Byron’s book (at least the images) are like a copy of a copy of a copy … can that distort the image enough to affect the clues?

    Aids memorial wasn’t there in the 80s

    Great solve man. I’m currently working on the the Houston treasure and this video was inspiring.

    You should look into the Charleston puzzle.A lot of people think it’s lost due to city construction, past storms,etc. would be interested in your take. Great videos👍👍

    Hi. Great clues. I’ve been studying this San Francisco hunt for years. I’ve made several trips out there. I’ve came to 3 separate locations. I found what seems to be her hairline in a rock formation by the coast and also every person seems to dismiss the moon shapes in the paintings. Also found a clue to that. Plus the shapes on her robe. Not masonic by the way. They’re on a building. The line: near ace high is a California term for Highway 1.

    by now, we can all agree atleast 2 are not in its original position/destroyed/taken unknowingly.

  14. Michael Pellegrini on May 20, 2023 at 8:44 am

    We’ll go ahead and dig up the casket for the gem! I can wait for another casket to be found!

    Super interesting channel, mainly because you make the people think and learn more about the history of USA. One question, why don’t you test your assumptions? I mean if you are right, then someone else may take the fame and ofc the gem😅

    3 posts high are wooden according to the Japanese hints…
