A substantial update of The Tsar’s Treasure with proof of cargoes through current research.
—
In the fog-bound waters off Nantucket on January 23, 1909, two ships collided in what would become one of history’s most consequential maritime disasters—and its greatest treasure mystery, now on the verge of being solved and promising the largest single gold recovery in history.
Drawing on decades of painstaking research, previously hidden documents, and startling new evidence, GOAT: THE GREATEST OF ALL TREASURES reveals the overwhelming evidence that beneath those Nantucket waters is a golden treasure exceeding $22 billion at the metal’s current value and even more if the 237+ tons of gold coins are sold unmelted, at their numismatic value.
When RMS Republic was rammed by SS Florida, the world witnessed the first-ever wireless (radio) distress call, which saved 1,800 lives. But this was just the beginning of an extraordinary story that world governments desperately wanted to keep secret. Rumors have long swirled that Republic carried $3 million in American Gold Eagles—over $400 million today. Explosive new research reveals a truth far more staggering: a secret cargo worth more than $22 billion in today’s currency, involving a conspiracy among the United States, tsarist Russia, France, Britain and the Empire of Japan.
All is revealed in GOAT, a history of heroism, mystery, unimaginable wealth, international intrigue, and massive cover-up. It is also a detailed narrative of how Captain Martin Bayerle and his dry-land research and deep-sea dive teams, after winning hard-fought legal battles to obtain salvage rights, then, finally ownership!, have not only explored the wreck site but have unearthed from archives in the US, UK, France, and Russia bank and treasury records substantiating the secret gold cargo the stricken Republic took with her to the bottom.
Greatest Of All Treasures? Martin Bayerle will show you the receipts.
