Raymond Kosschuk with some of the artefacts found in a field he believes holds King John's treasure

The man leading the search for King John's lost treasure says he has pinpointed a small area at the Sutton Bridge site which contains valuable targets.
Raymond Kosschuk has been conducting tests at an undisclosed site in Sutton Bridge for over a year and says his equipment is picking up overwhelming evidence of the treasure, as we previously reported.
Mr Kosschuk, from Keighleyin Yorkshire, believes that he has found scientific anomalies which are consistent with the high value items King John lost in 1216.
King John lost the treasure to The Wash during an ill fated crossing from King's Lynn on October 12, 1216 - just days before the unpopular monarch’s death in Newark Castle.
Mr Kosschuk has made the discovery using equipment he has invented which picks up anomalies in the readings of magnetic fields...
Mr Kosschuk still thinks some of the baggage train was recovered in the 14th century by a local baron but this cart carrying a heavy load was not located, and carried most of King John's prized possessions.
He said: "It seems to be odd that just one large cart would carry all of King John's high value items, yet this may be true..."
Mr Kosschuk says he has examined all the historical documentation on this subject and that this area fits all of unanswered questions historians have been looking for centuries.
He said: "I tried to seek another explanation to all I have uncovered. There is none but one - King John's Baggage train and some of his prized possessions lost in time in the ground for 809 years will soon see daylight once again."

KINGS
Steely Dan
Now they lay his body down
Sad old men who run this town
I still recall the way
He led the charge and saved the day
Blue blood and rain
I can hear the bugle playin’
[Chorus:]
We seen the last of Good King Richard
Ring out the past his name lives on
Roll out the bones and raise up your pitcher
Raise up your glass to Good King John
While he plundered far and wide
All his starving children cried
And though we sung his fame
We all went hungry just the same
He meant to shine
To the end of the line
[Chorus:]
We seen the last of Good King Richard
Ring out the past his name lives on
Roll out the bones and raise up your pitcher
Raise up your glass to Good King John
Hope he succeeds in his quest...............Just don’t call Whorealdo................
The FBI will be there to steal it from him shortly.
Yeah, why tell anybody anything? It absolutely floors me.
Heard about it here, I think.History News from June 2022 | Jul 1, 2022 | Reading the Past
I forget what % goes to the Crown but I remember it is really high
I was listening to that album just yesterday.
Still, Maybe a higher % than you might get in the USA if you let yhe fbi know you found a bunch of gold
Still one of the best debut albums ever.
John wasn’t a very good king.........Most of them weren’t................
Why I still listen to it.
Yeah, it seems like the best English kings were a few of the queens.
except Bloody Queen Mary ................... Between Edward VI The Boy King and Elizabeth I The Virgin Queen (yeah, riiiight)................................
“John wasn’t a very good king.........Most of them weren’t................”
“Well, that’s what I’m a-saying; all kings is mostly rapscallions, as fur as I can make out.”
Huckelberry Finn and Tom Sawyer!..................
John wasn’t the most illustrious of my ancestors. Fortunately like many people of English descent I’ve got my share of Magna Carta barons also. :D
I heard about a search for King John’s baggage train and treasure 2-3 years ago. There was a British TV show about it and some divers scouring the bottom of the river in search of the ford and evidence of the baggage train & treasure. I thought it was a Time Team episode, but I did not find a show title that covered the topic. The show’s conclusion was that the treasure is probably in the swampy, or once swampy area near the ford, downstream from the Sutton Bridge. Perhaps someone else knows the title of the show I saw.
Yeah, it seems like the best English kings were a few of the queens.

The history of England is similar to history of any criminal organization where might makes right. Kings become kings by killing off their opposition and rule until they are killed off. In between killing each other they steal from the peasants so they and their family can live like, well kings.
