Gary discovers evidence of a secret tunnel.
Could this secret tunnel bring answers to the many unanswered questions?
Stay tuned to find out more.

Gary Drayton — an expert in metal detecting — and the rest of the team,
including geoscientist Dr. Ian Spooner,
archaeologist Dr. Aaron Taylor,
and Miriam Amarald,
investigate stone walkways and a possible cellar feature near the swamp’s eastern boundary.

In a recent episode of The Curse of Oak Island,
Gary and David unearth a signal embedded in a wall throughout the course of their inquiry —
which ultimately leads to the discovery of a large caster wheel buried underneath.

Gary hypothesizes that this wheel may have been utilized on Oak Island during a tunneling operation,
adding to the prior discoveries of tunneling gear on the island.

As Gary discovers evidence of a secret tunnel,
the finding begs the question —
who first deposited the item,
and who found it subsequently?
The initial depositors… or the later searchers?

In light of this discovery,
the group intends to conduct additional research on the caster wheel.

Gary Drayton and the rest of the team
continue searching for stone walkways
and a suspected subterranean feature close to the eastern boundary of the marsh.
The team also includes Dr. Ian Spooner, Dr. Aaron Taylor, and Miriam Ammerald.

Gary and David make a discovery in a wall.
As they excavate,
they call Aaron over to help remove the signal.
They find a large caster wheel that Gary suspects may have been used in a tunneling operation on Oak Island.

This discovery adds to the evidence of prior tunneling tools found on the island —
raising the question of whether it was left by depositors or searchers.

The find has piqued the group’s interest,
and they plan to store it away for further examination.

While metal detecting,
treasure hunter Gary Drayton found not one, but two unique treasures.
His first find was made near Oak Island’s shoreline —
a button from a military officer’s uniform dating back to the 17th century.

However, it is not known which military it belonged to.
There might be evidence suggesting that this same military
was responsible for burying some of the secrets surrounding the island.

The second discovery that day
was made by Drayton and his team in a nearby forest.
They discovered a small coin buried in the dirt —
believed to be another Maravedí from the 17th century,
similar to one found in the previous season’s conclusion.

This coin, however, was smaller —
possibly two maravedís rather than eight.

Despite their modest size,
these extraordinary discoveries have the potential
to lead to a far greater treasure concealed somewhere on Oak Island.

While treasure hunting along the shoreline with his metal detector,
Gary Drayton made yet another double discovery.
This time, Drayton and his crew, working with team leader Rick Lagina,
discovered two King Charles II Britannia coins from the 17th century,
hidden beneath the rocks and pyrite scattered across the shore.

The year 1771 was plainly printed on one of the coins,
lending credence to the theory that the currency dates back several centuries.

Where did these coins come from?
Could treasure seekers in a hurry have accidentally dropped them?
Or — and here’s where the hope lies —
could they have been left by a wealthy group trying to hide their own treasure?

Without a doubt, the Oak Island crew will have to dig deeper — literally.

The digging of the Money Pit on Oak Island
is widely recognized as the beginning of the island’s treasure-hunting history.
It is believed that the buried treasure lies within the man-made pit itself.

Legend says a group of boys, around 13 or 14 years old,
discovered a depression in the earth in 1795
and began digging, thinking it was man-made.
They uncovered layers of logs and strange materials —
but their efforts were halted when mysterious floodwaters filled the pit.

News of the discovery spread quickly,
and soon treasure hunters from around the world
flocked to Oak Island in hopes of finding riches.

In 1803, the Onslow Company undertook the first organized excavation,
but flooding thwarted their efforts and the project was abandoned.

Over the next century,
many other groups tried their luck —
but time after time,
they failed,
defeated by flooding and mysterious booby traps designed to protect whatever lies below.

In 1861, the Oak Island Treasure Company reached a depth of 90 feet
before yet another flood ended their mission.
The company went bankrupt by 1909.

Since then, countless others have tried —
but the mystery of the Money Pit remains unsolved.

Despite centuries of setbacks,
the allure of Oak Island refuses to fade.

In recent years, new organizations have joined the search —
including the Oak Island Tourism Society, founded in 2010,
which promotes both the island’s history and tourism.

The Oak Island Archaeological Society has also played a crucial role —
leading digs, uncovering artifacts,
and spreading awareness about the island’s enigmatic past.

It seems likely that if treasure is ever found,
most of it will go to the Lagina brothers.

Under the current treasure trove license,
licensed finders can legally keep 90% of whatever wealth they uncover.

Marty Lagina has explained that if a substantial treasure were ever discovered,
many claimants might emerge —
each arguing for their right to a share,
perhaps through ancestry, geography, or historical ties.

But at the end of the day,
two parties would hold legitimate claims:
the Lagina brothers…
and the government.

Only time will tell if that day ever comes —
on The Curse of Oak Island.

Did he really exist…
or was he just a figment of our ancestors’ imagination?

Let’s take a look
at what these scientists have found out about King Arthur.

Some say the reason the legend of King Arthur never faded through time
is because he stood as a messianic figure —
a beacon of hope in a dark age.

A man who set a code of conduct for those around him,
and who protected his people
from the Saxon enemies of the era.

From the moment he pulled his father’s sword
from that mythical stone
to prove he was the rightful king of Britain,
Arthur’s journey was written in destiny.

Through countless battles to forge his kingdom…
and the fateful day he fell in the Battle of Camlann,
his reign became synonymous with prosperity and legend.

Guided and protected by the wizard Merlin,
the young king rose from obscurity.
At just fifteen years old,
Arthur stepped into power —
armed with wisdom,
magic,
and destiny itself.

With his Knights of the Round Table —
symbols of unity, courage, and honor —
Arthur’s legacy carved itself
deep into the soul of Britain.

But even the greatest of kings
face heartbreak.

For Arthur, it came through betrayal —
the affair between his queen, Guinevere,
and Sir Lancelot, his most trusted knight.

Despite this pain,
Arthur fought twelve great battles
against the Saxons.
And with his sword, Excalibur,
he turned the tide of war again and again.

One victory stands above the rest —
the Battle of Badon Hill —
where the Saxons were crushed,
and peace blanketed the land.

But peace… is fleeting.

Arthur’s own bloodline
would soon rise against him.

Mordred —
his son with his half-sister Morgause —
plotted to seize the throne.

The result was a bloody civil war —
the Battle of Camlann —
a clash that shattered the kingdom
and claimed the lives of both father and son.

After his fall,
time swallowed the truth.
Fact became myth.
And the line between history and legend blurred forever.

Even Excalibur vanished —
flung into a lake,
lost to the ages.

So… what evidence remains
of the great King Arthur?

Some say the excavation of Tintagel Castle in Cornwall
may hold the answer.
Long rumored to be Arthur’s birthplace,
recent digs have unearthed artifacts
from the very era he was said to rule.

Among them —
a stone tablet inscribed with the name Artognou.
Not quite Arthur…
but eerily close.

Could this stone have been created for the king,
or in his honor?
The similarity cannot be ignored.

Archaeologists also uncovered pottery,
glassware,
and fine tableware —
signs of trade, wealth, and culture.
Proof that Tintagel was more than a military fortress —
it was a royal center.

Still, skeptics remain.
They argue that coincidence
is not confirmation.

But those seeking the truth
press on.

Many now turn to Glastonbury Abbey —
one of England’s most sacred ancient sites.

According to legend,
this may be the final resting place
of King Arthur and Queen Guinevere.

After a devastating fire nearly a thousand years ago,
monks rebuilding the abbey
stumbled upon a mysterious grave
between two ancient pyramids
in the abbey’s cemetery.

An inscription read:
“Here lies buried the renowned King Arthur and Guinevere, his second wife, in the Isle of Avalon.”

Avalon —
the mystical land where the wounded king was said to have been taken to heal.

Inside a hollowed log coffin,
the monks found the remains
of a large man and a smaller woman —
fitting the descriptions of Arthur and his queen.

The discovery ignited England —
and soon, even rulers from across Europe
traveled to witness what could be
the burial site of the legendary king.

Glastonbury itself has long been believed
to be the Isle of Avalon —
a place where magic once walked beside men.

But there is another contender.

In the rolling green hills of Somerset,
stands Cadbury Castle —
an Iron Age hill fort that many believe
was once Camelot itself.

Its strategic location,
its ancient fortifications,
its traces of royal life —
all match the descriptions of Arthur’s court.

Excavations revealed relics,
symbols carved into stone,
and evidence of great halls
that once hosted knights and kings.

Battle scars and defensive walls
still mark the site —
proof of fierce struggles,
perhaps against Saxon invaders.

Some even say
that the round foundations discovered within
mirror the layout of the Round Table itself.

Still, as with all legends,
truth lies tangled in time.

Across Britain,
many other sites claim the title of Camelot —
but Cadbury Castle remains
one of the most convincing of them all.

And finally,
there is one artifact
that continues to capture imaginations —

The Winchester Round Table,
displayed in the Great Hall of Winchester Castle.

Around its edge are painted
the names of King Arthur and his knights.

For centuries,
many have believed it to be the Round Table —
the very one from which Arthur ruled.

But when experts dated the wood,
it was found to be from the 13th century —
centuries after Arthur’s supposed reign.

Perhaps not the original…
but maybe a reconstruction
to honor the legend that refused to die.

From ancient graves to sacred halls,
from castle ruins to carved stone,
the quest to uncover King Arthur’s truth continues.

Because somewhere between myth and memory…
between legend and lost history…
the story of Britain’s greatest king still endures.
