Treasure Blog: "Blue Baron"

During WWII, a "tramp steamer" loaded with gold and platinum bullion and gems was sunk in the Caribbean by a German U-Boat.

The salvagers who have discovered the wreck, preparing for legal battles, won't even reveal the name or location of the shipwreck, wanting to have 100% of the treasure recovered and in possession before they'll make the information available.

The treasure is estimated to be worth $3,547,696,044.32.

  1. Rob, this is fascinating. All we have to do is do a sonar search in a 40 mile radius of Guyana and the loot is ours! keep on top of this one mate, it's a great story.
