"Eye-witnesses recount FBI's pursuit of Civil War gold: armored truck and clandestine night excavation"

TL;DR
Two witnesses have come forward to share their accounts of hearing and seeing activity in the Pennsylvania woods during the FBI's search for buried Civil War-era gold in 2018. The witnesses' testimonies raise questions about the FBI's timeline and support the claims of a treasure hunter who led the agency to the potential dig site. The FBI denies finding any gold but acknowledges the presence of a metallic mass consistent with gold density. The ongoing legal battle over key records and the possibility of a secret overnight dig add intrigue to the saga.
