I'VE BEEN WATCHING RERUNS OF THE CURSE OF OAK ISLAND I WATCHED A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT OAK ISLAND IN 1978 ON IN SEARCH OF, STARING LEONARD NIMOY HE WAS THE HOST OF THE SHOW. I BELIEVE THAT ITS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY THAT THEY AIN'T ANY TREASURE ON OAK ISLAND.

Why? Are you going to give me a cut from the adds?
What's nice about this show is you can miss a few episodes or even a year or two
and then you relize you haven't missed anything, except that button they found in season 6!
The top pocket find?
It's a bobby dazzler...lol..or something like that ha
Groundhog series.
Stuff happened on this little island for sure. But anything hidden there is long gone.
My money is on there are several treasure burial sites on Oak Island, and that the money pit was built as a decoy to put treasure hunters off from finding the jackpot loot. I can not wait for season 9.
Thats going through a lot of trouble to hide something.
I agree. I can't see all the treasure being at in one location nor the inhabitants doing the same.
Great point.
I have to say, it excites me when you guys find something that connects the dates.
i wet myself a little to...
I really hope treasure is found but I also think with the history, artifacts and all the relationships that have been formed that in itself is a treasure that last a lifetime. Good luck to the fellowship!!!!
the announcer should be cast out to sea after the treasure is found tho
Between "a high ranking british naval officer visited the home of S.Ball" and "a high ranking british naval officer lost a button in or near the home of S.Ball" is a huge difference. If he lost one or more buttons from his uniform it means that something violent might have happened while was visiting the house of S.Ball.... I don't walk around leaving a trace of buttons everywhere i go and in every house i visit.
Ball ate officer white meat. His roots were a cannibal. Thus the Ball name.
The Royal Navy's main job in peacetime was preventing smuggling and helping the tariff agents. Smuggling operations are run out of those little islands. They were likely in his cellar looking for non-taxed rum and beating Ball for information. Ball may have made his money from selling the non-taxed rum in a market competing against fully taxed rum and pocketing the difference. The rum was likely hidden at one time in a secret warehouse now called the Money Pit. Early treasure search operations actually may have been a cover for a smuggling operation.
@@greengorilla8401 That is correct. But when something violent happens, the odds of buttons coming off increases. So there is this guy who it is claimed has gained a lot of wealth and there is a button in his cellar left by the major tax collection authority. What do they investigate? - smuggling. Is this guy located on the island because it is great farmland near the markets or because the location is good for smuggling? Is the cabbage operation only one of his sources of income?
@@greengorilla8401 Worthless bone buttons maybe, but not the golden ones made in a limited quantity, for only a specific category of people, i think those were pretty expensive at the time so they were paying extra atention not to lose them.
And to be clear, when i say "something violent" it doesn't necessarily mean murder. Pushing and pulling around or maybe some close fight can still be considered violent enough to make someone loose a button or two, maybe one eye, a couple of teeth.
My father's parents were cattle ranchers who operated a feed store from the early 1930s to 1999. They worked from hours before sunrise to hours after sunset every day. They* profited a couple bucks a head and few cents a bag of feed. When my grandmother died 2 months before her 100th birthday, she had left a nearby town a $1.1M community center and still had just under a million dollars in cash stashed all over her ranch house. They grew and raised their own food and made most of what they used in life. They lived out most of their lives before the tax-man robbed people who produce. Perhaps there's no real mystery to Samuel Ball's wealth. It could've just been the legacy of a life of frugality and long hours of hard work. Jus' sayin'
samuel ball was a slave, and had A VERY large amount of fortune out of no where. no one know we’re he got it and the fact he lived on the island where millions are supposedly buried.
the curse of oak island is that this show is still on the air
My favorite show on tv
Let's not forget pirates used to cut navy officers buttons off and keep them as trophies after they killed them. So this also could be something Samuel collected or even found searching
More likely than an officer visiting his house and losing a button.
@@useyourbrain.5574 yeah your buttons just fall of your uniform while your at work or visting friends do they, be serious. It's more likely it was kept by pirates as it was gold guilded as well as taken as a trophy. It's documented that they did this often to navy captains and officers as a sign of disrespect to the fleet. If they didn't kill them they spared them buttonless
The treasure is knowing the people that lived back then. No gold no money no silver only mud.
BINGO ! And a money maker for television "programming" charade for the dullards !
And wood, lots of old and new wood. :-)
@Derek Jackson lmao
Fabulous Video Team Look Underneath The Foundations Of Samuel Balls Property The Treasure Could Be There.
Cue The Announcer: "A button?...On Oak Island? Could this be from the uniform of people from another planet? Ancient Astronaut Theorists say yes."
Find something else to do rather than criticize what you see
You are wasting your time and mine
I would bet dimes to dollars that one could find more treasure off City Island in the Bronx, NYC than on Oak Island.
Exciting mystery and educational..!! a great mix..!.. this show has me hooked.!!
I would have agreed with you about 5 years ago. Today ? not so much.
With as long as this show has been on TV I could've excavated the entire island with a shovel.
Literally
HISTORY of Oak Island with Samuel Ball appreciate your videos Listening from Mass USA TYVM ♥️ Mr Ball
Obviously something happened on this island with all those different buildings and structures going on.
I know it gets dragged on but I actually enjoy it, I had a plan to fly to Halifax last summer and go down and tour the site, I also have been following it since I was a kid. Love from Ontario
Love oak island just hope i live 100plus years to see what they find
Great video !
A most wonderful find 🌞🌝❤
Pretty soon the whole island is going to fall into the money pit and it’ll be all over and there won’t be any more island because they drilled so many holes into it… LOL
So much history
The show that never ever, ever, ever, ever, ever produces anything ever.
Hilarious! 😂😂
More Please!
I think the money pit was raided and Ball took it all with an officer of the navy he trusted and that island has nothing to give up but clues
The real money pit is the amount of cash these guys have sunk into unearthing stuff I could probably find in my backyard. Maybe there is no treasure, maybe the real treasure is friendship. Or maybe it's that History Channel contract.
I have thought similar many times myself! The History Channel contract is the treasure! Lol.. The business of finding the treasure is worth to much! What gets me is how many tunnels they think they always find.
Yes finally someone gets it
@@alanalilley3037 😂😂👍👍👌
I agree! Haven’t found $100 worth of stuff if you ask me but sunk more then I can only dream of. Still at this point treasure or no treasure I want to know who went through all this trouble and for what reason.
Yeah, I know, I know... it's a "top pocket find!" ...but, you've got me hooked! I watch. ...and folks laugh at me, but, I still love the boys from Michigan! Love, as always, from Lapeer County, Michigan!
rick picks up a dirty old napkin " this is a absolutely stunning napkin its exquisite actually"
If anyone is going to escape from prison, it would be an archeologist. Just give them a trowel.
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Did you hear that ? It’s Samuel Ball laughing from the great beyond .
Yeah the guy clearly found the treasure and spent all the money
Very Nice
they need about 10 piles of gold at this point to break even
No they don't. There was one small find ....... and those with keen eyes (and an understanding of finance) will have spotted that suddenly ...... money was no object. The treasure hunt narrative is great for TV..... but the real situation on the island has gone way beyond that.
i cant believe this is still on the air
Samuel Ball used to be a slave, maybe he was one of the slaves that helped
Hide the treasure, maybe
He escaped slavery, then went back to get the treasure...only a thought.
Why haven’t they opened the trap door on Samuel Bells house they dug up?
That is going to happen on th 35th season. Rick and Marty open the door and descend down a spiral staircase never to be seen again. Except in the reruns shown on tv and in outerspace especially on the planet Uranus!
@@johntinus8185 😂😂
From finding the money pit to digging up Sam Ball's house. They need to change the title to "How to use a metal detector tutorial."
8 seasons of a wild goose chase by 2 dudes with more money than they know what to do with.
Full episodes would be nice
thx
That sifting is like looking for hair strands from a ghost.
I found a picture button of the British Royal Navy 1805-1812 with Three anchors
I'm waiting for season 9. Watched season 1 all the way to season 8 like 4 times. So very interesting.
Oh.. poor you
You're talking about an officers button being in his house. No wait lets just jump to the officer was there.
A button from a jacket sounds to me like a scuffle happened at that place
Poor Rick. He seems to be bored out of his mind.
samual ball found the treasure.
Some of it... i believe. Not all of it.
I think he did too, and kept his mouth shut about it and continued to live a simple life
@@chrispynov1963 i would not say a thing if i found it..:)
Put baking flour on unledgable item and dust it with a dry brush. This will make it legible.
I think Sam balls house was the old captain's quarters on the island while the holes were dug, cross made , cart road made . Ect.
I think Sam balls house was repurposed .
Or the old place was burnt down and sam reused the foundation. To make his house. Due to the fact this is the only stone foundations on the island found so far.
I am all out of sarcasm what more can be said.
Sam Ball either found the Money Pit or was the first to sell organic cabbages in North America.
I've always thought he held the key - how else did he but half the island? But it doesn't mean a British officer was in his hut... could have been a trade, or his own discovery as just 2 options. Just like dating the tools - if a tool is 250 years old, it doesn't mean it was used there 250 years ago.
I agree! These people are complete morons!
If they ever need volunteers I will be there
I’d say it’s more likely Ball had an officer’s jacket rather than an officer being there and just happening to lose a button on his visit (and not retrieving it to reattach).
@Derek Jackson Or the rest of that officer is buried further in that basement. lol
Greed has no boundaries, who knows?????
Sweet
I saw a sort of anchor shape maybe that says something about the timeline the coin is from.
Hey Rick And Marty .look how far y'all have came since y'all started hunting on oak island.all of This is part of the treasure .love the show been watching since the first week . Don't know what I'm going to do after y'all find it .
Don’t worry mate, they will never find a treasure.
Hey Rick and Marty I know .this has been a childhood dream for y'all .please don't let the show end y'all are so close. Y'all have found so much. I just know y'all are going to find it.
Google 1805 Royal Navy button and you will see 1805 to 1807 this was used. Curious we are getting history lessons every week
What about the trap door they found? Cellar door?
It leads to the producers office.
OK heres what I think about everything I trust the brothers I trust the nephews I trust the guy from England. I want you guys to be careful and watch your back please.
@@becky3930 what are you saying? I'd like to know more, to understand what you are saying.
@lola Blakeslee lol
Look more wood🤣
I love the curse of oak island and the fellowship
Rick and Marty should be focused on talking in depth with Samuel Ball's descendants, they have GOT to know something we don't
@Derek Jackson some of them were on the show several years back, certainly Samuel Ball passed down what he knew
They surely do, but they are never going to tell.
Two steps to the right and four to the left, dig down 34 feet, now look up and admit defeat, please stop the insanity.
Why is Ball's property not protecticted by Canada but others are?
Napoleonic Royal Navy button for an officer holding the rank of Master. Mercuric gilt over brass construction. Obverse with typical oval border with rope inner and outer edges, central large fouled anchor and with two further smaller anchors, one each side. The anchors set in relief over horizontal striping. The reverse with typical flat back, central fixing loop and impressed makers name, Hammond Turner & Dickinson'. Size: 23mm.
Condition report: Approximately 85% of the original mercuric gilt plating still present. Slight wear to the obverse, still very sharp detail for its age.
Note: The manufacturer, Hammond Turner & Dickinson were known to be active between 1790 and 1823. This particular button would have been manufactured between 1807 and 1812.
Additional information: The rank of Master is particularly scarce to find, since as with the rank of Captain, there would only be one Master to a ship. Outside of the Captain, the Master was the second most important individual, due to the master's specialist navigational skills
Awesome to see someone so knowledgeable about history. It seems to be a dieing trait.
Everybody's losing buttons on oak Island
Can we all just agree they are never EVER going to find anything?
Alex Lagina has found a piece of pottery while sifting through soil. What could it mean? Was Samuel Ball afflicted with butterfingers and thus the reason for all the broken pottery? And what about the Royal Navy button? What was his involvement with the British Navy and did he join or was he having an officer there as a guest? And who taught him proper etiquette because that officer losing that button had to be embarrassing for Samuel Ball? More questions than answers for another episode of the Curse Of Oak Island.
Great Reality TV Program.
I fast forward through 99% of each episode to get 3 minutes or less of watchable tv.
Me too and it was a metal detector commercial
The real curse of oak island is thst i dont watch this joke yet i keep getting notifications for it.
Curse you History Channel.....i just want Pawn Stars.
It took me a while to figure this out but I realize now that they are too successful with their series and they don’t really have an interest in ending the series by showing us that they found the treasure. Maybe they know where it is maybe they don’t but they’re making too much money off this series showing us these little scrap findings..... over here, a little coin there and a button, etc.
They now have a spinoff TV program.
Yep it's money spinner that's real treasure only dirty and people bits and peaces just what you would find if I start dinging around were humans lived.
If the stone pathway is leading to the money pit. Then why not look for signs of the pathway near the money pit area.
It's a Bri'ish Navy Bu'on
Is it too hard to assume that he just might have been an officer
That was my first thought. Maybe he was an officer. But they probably have done their research and know what his rank was. I'd say they have the best picture of his life you can get, giving the history channel funds alot of this.
But for sure why couldn't it be a button from his uniform?
Sadly, in those times it would be very unlikely that an ex-slave, however smart and capable, would be an officer.
Goodmorning, long time fan of show, He had a lot to do with , most likely the guardian of what’s hidden there
Hence his wealth
The treasure is the Nova Scotia tax credit for tv and film!!
The only New clue here is that nobody really has one
I thought the Outer Banks on Netflix already explained how the treasure was found😂😂
Exactly
*sigh* Will someone please tell these guys there’s nothing there....? 🙄
Top pocket find guy always knows what the stuff is because he out Orr here
Does the stone strucksures remind you of anything?I think Templar!
They found dry cabbage ball
One button does not an Officer make.
Samuel Ball actually found the treasure you guys found the tools and equipment he used to find it.
What if that officer that owened that button died at that property, did he died of natural cause or somebody killed him? Keep on digging and keep on investigating.
Stop before it's to late, and the beast is released.
The revelation.. Is upon us all.
Going to go on for another 10 years and find nothing
Wonder how much has been invested in this search?🤔
The never ending show with zero results keep it up guys what a great job you’re doing I can’t believe this is still in the air you’re not gonna find anything and just go home
This will be the last one I watch nothing much found there's no treasure
Perhaps the buttons were collected like trophies.
The newest clues are, well keep watching , we might find an old nail.....or something.
Néchci upozorněni na tenhle pořád následují to
The great thing about this show is it's going to last another 27 years with the 2nd. generation in training. My guess after watching this thing for years.....something is there. NOBODY could've retrieved the treasure; it's too complex. It's so complex, that even w/ state-of-the-art tech and heavy machinery....it's taken YEARS, and still a work in progress, w/ no resolution as of yet. Turns out the only treasure found is the million$ these two have made from MILKING a franchise for 8+ years.
Is it a top pocket find?
Who says ? Television ?????? LOL
Why do they never have a bucket with water to rinse off what they find?
Same reason they don't have a small finds expert on site or a field archeologist or a geophysiologist or an historical researcher or ground radar and dozens of other things they would automatically have in a serious investigation.
What if, Ball and Anderson became close friends, and Ball was told of some treasure he buried, that Ball was welcome too?
Even if nothing is found by these
brothers in terms of gold (or alot of it)
They in the end will not only be part of
history but they indeed made History !
