In Season 12, Episode 19 of The Curse of Oak Island, the team continues its pursuit of the island’s centuries-old treasure.
Despite setbacks, the Lagina brothers and their crew continue to investigate multiple dig sites, hoping to uncover definitive evidence of treasure buried beneath Oak Island.
The Hit and Miss episode highlights promising discoveries and frustrating dead ends.
The team’s efforts centered on the Money Pit area, the swamp, and Lot 5, each offering tantalizing clues that kept the mystery alive.
The findings, from carbon-dated wood to French pottery, suggest historical activity that could be linked to the original treasure deposit.
Yet, once again, the island seems determined to keep its secrets hidden.
Shaft 6 produces wood and no treasure
The team uncovered wooden beams in the north corner of Shaft 6, near the Money Pit, that hinted at a possible man-made tunnel.
An earlier failed excavation left behind a debris field, but new hope emerged from an adjacent borehole known as RP2.
There, they recovered an iron strap believed to have once secured a treasure chest, hand-cut timber, and a barrel stake nearly 100 feet deep.
These items supported theories that the treasure was stored in barrels along with chests.
However, despite these promising finds, RP2 ultimately ended without revealing the treasure.
Refusing to give up, the team began planning another caisson shaft, remaining confident they were close to solving the Money Pit mystery.
