"Hrmph, well there are a few ways to do it," Quentin says with a shrug of his shoulders. "Shipwrecks are the most common. This involves going over historical records to find ships that were lost at sea. Then you see if you can pull their shipping route, cross-check against historical records of storms to see if you can guess where they might have gone under, then look at current charts to try to fathom where the ship would have hit sea bed. At that point, you taking a gauge of how far off the coast that is, if your diving bell will even be able to reach that deep, and then you go and look for the ship if all of those things align. Then you go down into the sea and look around to see what, if anything, you can find. Of course, this works best in the Caribbean or down South where the waters are more temperate and easier to see through. In short, it takes time, money, mountains of research and significant personal risk. With no actual guarantee on investment since odds are good you won't find anything."

Quentin explains this all with a no-nonsense tone and then he continues. "Of course, you might be lucky enough to find a treasure map. Then you are taking on the risk of that being fraudulent of course. They tend to be since pirates would often just barter their goods at friendly ports for foreign coin. The few that did bury their treasure for later retrieval to skirt military check points tended to retrieve said gold later once the checkpoint was clear."
