Last week his metal detector was busy again combing the attic of a customer who had found the service of his will on the internet. In 2016, Wille founded a prized wedding ring in the water off Waterford for retired teacher Elias Hage.
The family had hired carpenters in the past, but they came up empty-handed. But this treasure hunt saw something on the ground that no one else noticed. The family found $ 5,000 parcels and a total of $ 46,000 wrapped in original bank straps. It’s been hidden since the 50’s.
“Let’s go, are you ready? Oh look at that. I see 20s, I see 10s, ”said Wille. “I think it was a shock. I think we were all in shock, ”said Wille.
It was a gray metal box and they slowly pulled up the floorboards and finally broke the family rumors. “I got a couple of signals here. I take my endoscope camera and look under the floorboards and into the cracks in the corner, ”said Wille in the video. “When I dropped it into the second or third hole, I saw something strange. It had letters and numbers on it. It was a little silver thing with a slit in it. I realized oh man this is a keyhole. “
“This whole story that you think is true, you don’t know if it’s true. I’m just glad it was finally found, ”said Karen. Channel 3 spoke to a family member over the phone.
