Many of us have grown up with old stories of pirates' treasure and the adventures that surround them. Sometimes we dream about digging up a couple of pounds of Spanish doubloons, but the reality is that that stuff is long in the past. Or is it? Not for this family, who found this haul in their new house while they were redoing the floor tiles in the kitchen.
The contents: $51,080 in cash, a bottle of bourbon, a bingo card (which we assume had expired), and a book. Not a bad haul, if you're not even looking for it. The book, in fact, is maybe the biggest mystery of the lot. Titled "A Guide For The Perplexed", in it were a series of clues, seemingly to another lot of treasure hidden in Arizona. Which no-one has found to this day.
