Forrest Fenn, the man who hid the 42-pound bronze chest, said it had finally been unearthed over the weekend. “The treasure has been found.”The finder of the treasure wanted to remain anonymous, Fenn said. ADThe elusive 13th-century treasure chest was filled with rare artifacts, precious jewels, gold, rubies, diamonds and other valuables, Fenn has said through the years. Many believe the Fenn treasure is a hoax. Randy Bilyeu — a 54-year-old man who moved to Colorado from Atlanta to be closer to the treasure — died in pursuit of the hidden riches in 2016.
