In 1981, the largest deep-sea operation to recover gold from the sunken English cruiser Edinburgh was carried out in the Barents Sea. At the end of April 1942, the cruiser left Murmansk for England with 5.5 tons of gold on board, but, having received damage from German warships, was scuttled by order of the captain. Only in 1980 did English experts determine the exact location of the ship, and in September 1981, most of the gold bars were raised to the surface. Several ingots were never found.

The wealth raised was estimated at more than $400 million, including 200 gold and about a thousand silver bars, jewelry, gold chains and an entire arsenal of weapons from the 17th century.
The treasure was found by one of the most famous treasure hunters, Barry Clifford, just a few hundred meters from Cape Cod Beach on the Florida coast. He discovered the wreck of the pirate galley Whydah, from which he recovered about five tons of various valuables.
Total price found exceeded $15 million: before crashing on the coastal reefs, the pirates robbed more than fifty ships.
About 48 tons of silver were recently recovered from the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean - the largest cargo of precious metal ever discovered in the depths of the sea. Treasure worth approximately $38 million was found on board the Gersoppa ship off the coast of Ireland. This military transport ship sank in 1941 after a German attack. submarines.
The remains of a British freighter sunk by the Nazis during World War II have been discovered off the northeast coast. South America. The value of the find was that the ship was carrying a large cargo of gold, platinum and diamonds intended to replenish the US treasury.

In the dungeons of the Sri Padmanabhaswamy Temple (Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India), which is a shrine to the former rulers of the principality of Travancore, researchers discovered untold riches that amazed not only India, but the whole world.
History has long kept legends about the countless treasures of the ancient rulers of India - what they possessed a huge amount gold coins and precious stones. As is often confirmed in practice, legends and tales are not always based on fictitious facts, as was confirmed by researchers who lifted hundreds of kilograms of gold coins and items made of precious alloys and bags of precious stones.
According to official sources, five secret vaults have been opened in the Sri Padmanabhaswamy Temple, the construction of which was dedicated to the god Vishnu. According to preliminary estimates by experts, their value could be twenty billion dollars, which gives every reason to consider this treasure the largest to date.
By order of the Indian government, work continues in two more secret chambers of the same temple. Researchers do not lose hope of discovering new hiding places using metal detectors.
The largest treasure in history consists of gold coins and bars, the total weight of which is about two tons, several bags of diamonds and a diamond necklace five and a half meters long. And scientists consider the biggest find to be the statue of the god Vishu, which is made of pure gold and has a height of 1.2 meters.
The construction of the temple dates back to the 16th century, but its prosperity began much later - from the 17th to the 19th centuries. During this time, the priests of the temple collected merchant donations and offerings, which filled the vaults.
Not the cheapest treasure in the world was found by the American company Odyssey near Portugal. The treasure was discovered on the sunken Spanish naval frigate Nuestra Señora de las Mercedes in 2007. 500 thousand gold and silver coins, jewelry and decorations were lifted to the surface from the frigate. The total value of this treasure was about $500 million.
The right to this treasure was put forward in court by the Spanish government, as they want to protect the historical value from the hands of robbers and treasure hunters. Representatives of the American company Odyssey defended their right to the treasure, since it was found on neutral territory, but the Florida court, represented by Judge Mark Pizzo, remained on the side of Spain and decided to transfer everything found to the Spanish government.
The frigate Nuestra Señora de las Mercedes was transporting minted coins from the Spanish colony to Peru in 1804, but was sunk by the British near Cape St. Mary. Approximately 200 sailors died from the frigate explosion.
The American company Odyssey claims that the treasure was recovered as part of the Black Swan special operation, but as it later turned out, the Spanish authorities were not notified of such operations. Odyssey's actions were called immoral and legally unacceptable.
On at the moment The treasures are under the protection of the US federal court. One thing that remains unclear is when Spain will be able to rightfully receive the treasure that belongs to them. The Odyssey company plans to file an appeal and challenge the court's decision, as it believes that the representatives of Spain have not proven their full right to ownership of this treasure.

Sometimes it seems that treasure hunters only exist in adventure books. And in modern world It is naive to count on finding treasures by chance. Our ranking of the Top 10 most famous treasures in world history proves the opposite. This means that the earth and the depths of the sea still hold pleasant surprises for desperate treasure hunters.
10. Basement with a secret
Sometimes to find the most large treasures, no need to diligently wield a shovel. So, a married couple from France didn’t even have to leave their home to do this. The treasure was found in the basement of their house. One day, while trying to fix leaking water pipes, a couple from the city of Milo discovered a clay pot embedded in the floor. Its contents made the home owners forget about problems with the pipes. The jug was filled with old gold coins. There were a little more than 30 of them in total. However, according to a numismatist, today the find could be worth about 100 thousand euros. After all, all coins are of great interest to collectors. Thus, the most expensive of them is considered to be the louis d'or, issued during the reign of Louis XIII. An expert valued the 1640 coin at 6,500 euros. According to French law, spouses are the rightful owners of treasures. And all because the treasure was found on their private property.
9. Easy money
In 2010, Italian drivers could feel like real treasure hunters. Although there was no need to look for 1 and 2 euro coins. Money amounting to 2 million euros was scattered along the Autobahn. It happened near the city of Foggia in the south of the country. The whole point is that as a result of an accident, a cash-in-transit vehicle overturned. In its back they transported money from the Italian mint to the country's banks. Is this a treasure? Definitely for those drivers who feverishly stuffed coins into their pockets and left the scene of an accident. The police arrived quite quickly, but the short time was enough for passing drivers to grab a total of 10 thousand euros.
8. Profitable hobby
Englishman Lawrence Egerton has an interesting hobby. He likes to wander through the fields with a metal detector. Not to say that he is enthusiastically looking for treasures; rather, he is simply relaxing. In October 2014, during one of these walks, his headphones suddenly beeped. It could have been an old horseshoe or a tin can, but Egerton examined the find with curiosity. It turned out to be 2 ancient coins. The man decided to check the place more thoroughly. And armed with a shovel, he drove it into the ground. Very shallow underground, he discovered a treasure consisting of copper coins. Realizing that he had found real treasures, Lawrence hastened to turn to specialists. Throughout the three days it took to prepare the group of archaeologists, Egerton did not leave the site of the discovery. He guarded the coins, preferring to sleep in the car. Specialists who arrived at the scene established that the coins belonged to III century n. e. Thus, from the county of Devon, 22 thousand coins of the Roman Empire migrated to British Museum. Presumably, the cost of the find is about 100 thousand pounds. Part of the funds is due to the owner of the land in which for many years the coins were lying around. The rest will rightfully go to Lawrence Egerton.
7. Princely cache
In 1917, representatives of noble families and prominent merchant families were forced to hastily leave Russia. Leaving the country, each of them fervently hoped to return. Therefore, we took the minimum amount for the trip so that it would be enough for the first time. They tried to hide the main wealth in the form of family jewelry, silverware and masterpieces of painting more reliably until better times. So it turned out that the largest treasures found in the 20th century in Russia often have noble roots. Thus, the hiding place of the Yusupov princes was accidentally declassified shortly after the revolution. But the treasures of the Trubetskoy-Naryshkins lay in a secluded place until 2012. It was then that during the restoration of the outbuilding, a secret room was accidentally discovered. It contained 40 bags of real treasures. In addition to the already mentioned silver and jewelry, the bags contained orders and medals from tsarist times, and antique watches. All items were carefully packed in linen rags soaked in vinegar. Due to this, all 2168 items were preserved in perfect condition.
6. Reward for perseverance
Sometimes treasure hunters spend their entire lives searching for treasures. However, not everyone is lucky in this case either. Providence rewarded Richard Miles and Reg Mead for their perseverance. These two residents of the island of Jersey, located in the English Channel, spent more than 30 years of their lives searching for the treasure. And in 2009, hundreds of silver and gold coins were found. Professional archaeologists have already established the age of the coins. This kind of money was in use in 50 BC. e. Of course, this is an invaluable historical find. As for the more mundane facts: the treasure weighs about 750 kg, and the cost reaches 10 million pounds. The coins had been in the ground for an incredibly long time, and the metal had become caked with the soil. Therefore, the find is a huge block, but archaeologists expect to clean and separate the coins. And Reg and Richard, of course, will be rewarded. Although they modestly note that money does not play a special role in this situation. The men are happy that their long-standing dream of a treasure has come true.
5. Arturito smells treasure
There is Robinson Crusoe Island in Chile. This place is named so because for 4 whole years it was the home of the Scottish sailor Alexander Selkirk. And his story inspired Daniel Defoe to create his beloved book about Robinson Crusoe. So, one of the local private companies stated that countless treasures were buried in this place at a depth of 15 meters. Such conclusions were made possible by the use of the latest robot, which company representatives affectionately call Arturito. The robot is capable of scanning layers of earth to a depth of 50 meters, accurately determining what is hidden underneath. This time Arturito found 720 tons of gold. Apparently, the jewelry is a pirate treasure hidden on the island by the famous Spanish corsair Juan Esteban Ubilla back in the 18th century. His legacy is regularly searched for by desperate treasure hunters, methodically digging through every piece of land on the island. And “Arturito” found her gold in 2005. Be that as it may, there is still no information that the treasure was excavated.
4. Bellamy the Pirate's Treasure
The fearsome pirate Samuel Bellamy served in the navy long before his criminal career. Having boarded a ship at the age of 18, he fell in love with the sea with all his soul. He could only talk more passionately about his beloved. Maria Hallett met him in America, and the young Englishman was ready to lead the beautiful American down the aisle. But the groom was poor. And in order to earn money to support his young family, he became a pirate. In just a year, he established a good business. An extensive network of informants made it possible to identify ships whose holds were filled with a variety of valuables. The victim simply had no chance to escape from the fast frigate Vaida. This went on all year, and in 1717 Samuel managed to hit an unusually rich jackpot. The ship was filled to capacity with jewelry and gold coins. The pirate hurried to his beloved, now he could afford the most luxurious life. However, Maria did not wait for her beloved. Caught in a storm, the ship, along with its crew and treasures, sank. And so he would lie at the bottom Caribbean Sea, if not for archaeologist Barry Clifford. In 1982, on the sandbank, he discovered an old ship, and about 5 tons of real pirate treasure. By modern standards, this pirate treasure could be worth more than $15 million.
3. Whose crown?
During the demolition of an old building in the Polish city of Sroda Slaska, a treasure was discovered. This happened in 1985, and became one of the most notorious events of the 20th century in the world of archeology. The treasure consisted of 3,000 silver coins and 40 gold coins. In addition to ancient money, there were pendants, rings and other jewelry. Historians claim that gold jewelry was made in XII-XIII centuries. But another find is of greatest value. Among other treasures was a golden crown. It is not known for certain who it belonged to. However, experts suggest that the crown was made for Blanca Valois. Who was the first wife of the King of Bohemia and Germany, Charles IV of Luxembourg. By the way, the famous Charles Bridge in the Czech capital is named in his honor. As for the treasure, all its components are kept in museums in Poland. Most of it is in Szroda Śląska itself, and the rest can be seen in Krakow.
2. Do the impossible for silver
There is a company in the USA that specializes in marine treasures. After all, it’s no secret that the largest treasures are under water. As a result of numerous shipwrecks, the jewelry reserves of the seas are impressive. So, an American company carried out an operation of unprecedented complexity. More than 2.7 thousand silver bars were recovered from the bottom, the total weight of which was 108 tons. But besides the big find, OMEX has another reason to be proud. The fact is that the silver was located at a depth of 5 km. In 1941, the British merchant ship Gersoppa was carrying an incredibly valuable cargo. The precious metal was necessary for military needs. However, when 500 km remained from the coast of Ireland, the ship was sunk by a German submarine. Of the 85 sailors, only one managed to survive. And the silver ended up forever in the Atlantic Ocean. However, despite all the difficulties, OMEX managed to do the impossible. The first part of the treasure, weighing 48 tons, was brought to the surface in 2012. The next year we managed to get the rest. The total value of the treasure was 73 million dollars. In accordance with the official agreement, 20% of the find was transferred to Great Britain. And 80% of the treasure was received by the OMEX company.
1. Shocking discovery in the temple
The famous Padmanabhaswamy Temple is located in the Indian state of Kerala. Its main decoration is a 5-meter statue of Vishnu. The figure of the deity is completely covered with gold and lavishly decorated with precious stones. But it was not this remarkable exhibit that made the monastery famous throughout the world. In 2011, a cache filled to the brim with gold was found at the base of the temple. The weight of the objects was an incredible 30 tons, and their value was 22 billion dollars. Historians suggest that the rulers of Travancore stored the valuables for several hundred years.
Who doesn't dream of finding treasure? But do not forget that easy-to-get money does not always bring happiness. And then, it’s much more useful to look around. It is quite possible that your greatest treasure has been drinking coffee with you in the morning for many years.

6. The treasure was found in 2010 by David Crisp. He is an amateur treasure hunter. The treasure is estimated at only $5 million. The treasure is most valuable in the historical aspect: this is due to the fact that during this period the Roman Empire was experiencing an economic crisis and the quality of the coins was very low, and the treasure itself represents a four-year salary of a legionnaire. The found coins can be seen in the British Museum.
The cargo with platinum was supposed to be delivered to New York during the Second World War - this platinum was used to pay for “Allied assistance.” But the ship was sunk by a German submarine.
