Will We Ever Find The Lost Victorian Treasure From This Royal Shipwreck? | Absolute History

[@ruthstevens8805]

I grew up in Melbourne and have been on Station Pier several times, once to see the QE2. I never knew it was that old, nor have i ever heard of this ship and its sinking!

Vince indeed the sort of treasure you've brought to people, ordinary people, is simply priceless, you couldn't put a price on it. Thanks.

As a 32 year old woman whom weighs 170 lbs, I am not slender, but my wedding ring is only a size 3.5 (G 1/2). I've only been able to find children that can wear my ring. When comparing my hands to a hand impression of a seven year old, my hands fit perfectly except my fingers were a bit longer. I'm not skinny but I have small hands with thin fingers, seeing that ring immediately reminded me of my own, so small no man can even put it on their pinky.

I also wear 3.5 rings, and can’t never find one that fits! All have to be sized down!

[@angelicaapperson950]

@@elisabethsteel3382 Same here, every ring I own has been downsized. 😂

Vince is a nice gentle prospector. Unlike many others. This is watchable :)

[@peterxd3610]

it was not the miners who got rich, but the innkeepers and when they sold the equipment for the mines

[@micaltoy824]

I really enjoyed this. Great job great video

[@mintberryXoXo]

That assumption this ring would belong to that one girl was a bit of a stretch. It could have been any rich passenger bringing this as a gift for example. Not impossible, sure, but "very likely"? I don´t think so

[@glennboyd939]

With quartz embedded in that nugget, it can be traced to the exact mine or reef.

Awesome!

[@elisabethsteel3382]

A very touching story! I’ve enjoyed this documentary very much, so interesting! Thank you for sharing! 🤗😍

[@agallet]

Fascinating

[@zuzuspetals38]

[@michaeldixon972]

Willing to help

[@glennboyd939]

No-one owns Slatey Creek. It's crown land and free for all to prospect.

To many KZbin ads.

Just go to the last few seconds and replay the video and no more adds will come. Or just use addblock..

[@SmartArtzz]

but did he give it back to him?

[@mintberryXoXo]

The ring? Of course not. It´s a massiv stretch to assume that ring belonged to that particular girl. There were too many people who could have brought the ring and not even worn it. He only guessed from that line in the newspaper that this girl wore rings, nothing else whatsoever

Less waffle, more diving air!!

PROS WITH NO METAL DETECTORS!???

[@jomakwee]

Ships are made up of a lot of metal. It will just be a nuisance

[@alfredenglund]

@@jomakwee you can filter certain metals out like iron

[@Volundur9567]

Too much interference from other objects. Instinct works best, as my grandfather (who prospected often) would say.
