The Curse of Oak Island: 17th Century French Relic Discovered (Season 11)
This excerpt is from an episode of The Curse of Oak Island, a reality show documenting the Lagina brothers and their team’s search for treasure and artifacts on Oak Island, Nova Scotia. The team uncovers several historical artifacts, including Roman coins, iron fasteners, and a decorative strap potentially linked to a chest. Some of these finds, like the coins, date back to ancient Roman times, while others are possibly French in origin, raising questions about early visitors to the island.
Carmen Legge, a blacksmithing expert, helps identify some of the artifacts, speculating that they could be related to tools used for mining or tunneling. The French influence detected in some items, like the strap, along with the lead cross found earlier, supports the theory presented by researcher Zena Halpern, who believed the island may have been visited by the Knights Templar or Freemasons in the 12th to 14th centuries.
Rick Lagina reflects on how these discoveries may connect to the greater mystery of Oak Island, hinting at possible ancient depositional work and the need for further excavation.
