History's Greatest Mysteries
S07E18 Lost Civil War Gold
As the Civil War sputtered to its close, Confederate officials scattered southward, whispers trailing them of a fortune—roughly $13 million in modern terms—supposedly in their possession. Yet when Union troops finally seized Jefferson Davis, his belongings held no trace of the fabled cache. The mystery remains: did the gold vanish into the chaos of defeat, buried along forgotten routes or smuggled into loyal hands? And if so, is it still hidden somewhere out there, untouched and waiting for someone to uncover its secret?
