It’s a movie story, one linked to a recently deceased millionaire and an alleged treasure hidden in a hardly accessible place.
It is the story of the hidden treasure by Forrest Fenn, 90, who died on Monday after a fall at his home in Sante Fe, New Mexico.
A few years ago, the eccentric millionaire – a former Vietnam fighter pilot before recycling himself with luck as an art dealer – had declared that he had hidden a treasure worth a total of 2 million dollars in the desert: it is (it would be) of a bronze box filled with nuggets and gold coins and other precious gems, for a total total weight of 19 kg.
He then disseminated clues to the location of the treasure in a 24-line poem, published in his autobiography ‘The Thrill of the Chase’
As stated by the same millionaire in some interview released some years ago: “Nobody knows where the treasure chest is except me, If I die tomorrow, the knowledge of that place goes into the coffin with me”.
And now that he’s really dead, knowledge of the place (which is supposed to be in the Rocky Mountains, somewhere between Santa Fe and the Canadian border, at an altitude of over 1,500 meters) has gone with him in the coffin, too. if last June there was talk of the alleged discovery of the treasure (discovery questioned by many).

Since ‘The Thrill of the Chase’ was released in 2010, as many as 350,000 researchers from around the world have set out to search for the treasure, with five men losing their lives in their search.
Other people – obsessed with this research – have been arrested for crimes, including digging under a roadside memorial.
Many now wonder if the treasure has really been found or will ever be found. And, above all, if it really exists.
