Treasure Codes and Signs
|
|
Most hidden treasures came with a symbol where the one responsible for hiding the object can easily retrieve it back. You also need to be aware that they put some deadly traps such as bombs and poison but they usually indicate them with a warning sign that only few can read and understand. Bombs are usually indicated by a Skull sign while the Poison as Coiled Snakes. When you encounter such symbols on your treasure hunting site then you must take caution.
All over the world there are treasures hidden by the Pirates, lost Civilization and the Japanese from the last World War II. Those treasures that are hidden by the Pirates are harder to hunt because they are commonly found under the water. Lost Civilization such as the Ancient Egypt requires a lot of digging and excavation because it has been buried due time. The only possible treasures that can be easily claimed are those that are recently hidden.

Treasure Hunters can easily find what they are searching for provided that they have complete reference such as the Map and knowledge about the Codes. If you do not have these references then the only tool that you can rely is your best detector and it will require you a lot of work trying to cover the entire suspected area.
Browsing the internet for Codes and Symbol will provide you a very few information where you need to go to an online store. You can check out the Amazon or Ebay for any available products. If you can’t find anything then the last method is to ask on various related forum about Treasure Hunting. Some might even provide you a free copy.
Moreover, you have to know that not all Treasure Codes and Symbols are internationally used. The symbol used by the Japanese is completely different from those that are used by the Pirates or Egyptians. So if your intention is to search for a lost item hidden by the Pirates then you have to find the code relates about them.
I have my own Japanese Treasure code collection where I got it from a friend. I’m thinking about posting it on this blog but the copies are not clearly good enough to be viewed where I have to make some editing. Photoshop is a very nice complicated tool that I’m currently using. If you wish to obtain a copy then you have to patiently wait for a few more days because there are still a hundreds of unedited codes that are left for me to work on.

Im digging a treasure in my place at this time. There are people asking where to find this place, a treasure buried during world war 2 handling maps and sites, since i know the place i keep it for almost 20 years in my life,now i try to dig it with my children until we were 12 feet deep above the ground. We found something unusual to the land there is a blue grey colored soil found about portion only of the tunnel we were excavating at the center if it. Its odorless and when it expose to sun it becomes normal soil. Then there is a large flat stone measuring 1 and a half feet in height and 1 and one forth feet in wide, looks like a tongue or snake head. what symbols and signs have it in the treasure buried during that time. We dont have any nor device to use but only herbal plants cassava we are using of. Please try to give some comment on it or try to share what you have in your mind.
If graces comes i will probably be with you to share part of it.
thank you.
Most devices aren't really useful when you already have a map. You just have to dig on the site basing on the location of the treasure from your map. Since you already found some signs then it only means that you are on the correct spot.
Now, about the colorless gray colored type of soil, you need to be careful since it might contain some dangerous poisons. Exposing it under the heat of the sun causes the poison to evaporate. So I suggest making use of a gloves in trying to dig them out and perhaps a gas mask. Anyway, I'm not exactly sure if it is a poison unless the content of the soil is analyzed.
As for the big stone that seems like to be a huge tongue or a head of a snake, there can only be two meaning. You need to take a closer look and identify the sign correctly. If it's simply a huge tongue shape flat stone then you need to keep digging. If it's a snake then you need to be careful because underneath is a dangerous poison.
So that's it and I really hope it helps and thanks for trying to share a part of it in-case that you found your treasure but it's not necessary because the information that I share on this blog is completely free for everyone.
Keep Digging and Good Luck!
What does "IV" mean?
We found a face carved on a rock which looked like it was crying then after digging, we found a rock with two arrows pointing at each other >< and a huge turtle shaped rock. Please help...
The "IV" symbol could indicate the depth that you need to dig. This is actually a roman numerical number which mean four (4) and basing on my own interpretation it is trying to imply that you need to dig at least 4 meter to reach the buried object.
The two arrows pointing to each other means that you are on the right spot. You just have to keep digging until you will find another sign. And in your case, you found a huge turtle shaped rock. If this is one of the sign then it indicates a certain body of water around the area.
The first symbol was the "IV" marked on a flat rock surface then a meter away, we found a face carved on a huge rock and it looked like it was crying. After digging two meters down, we found two arrows pointing at each other >< and the huge turtle shaped rock.
Just like what I said, the "IV" must have indicate the depth that you need to dig. The two meters depth that you manage to dig isn't just enough yet to uncover the buried item. The faces and the two arrows are simply just confirmations that the item is just around the area. If you could only provide a photo of the actual symbols then I might be able to give you a better explanations. You can always contact me on my email provided at the contact page.
Good luck...
what does it mean if the stone turtle's head seems to be hidden and it has no feet and tail?
You mean that the symbol shows only the turtle's shell since its head, feet and tails are hidden? If it is, then my own interpretation about this symbol means something about the case, chest or coverings of the buried treasure.
how can i have a copy of signs and codes?
There are thousands of codes on my list and I just completed around 50 of them as I do not really have too much time for editing. Please be patient and the right time will come for you to use. I'll be posting it on this blog so that everybody can make use of it.
hi elmo i found a rock on the top of a big die rock with a water flowing nearby on the top of the die rock a granite curve like a turtle shell then when i try to open their are 3 rocks triangle that support on the granite rock.
The three triangle rocks mean that you have to check every corners. This means that on every corners of the rock, there are deposits. In most cases, only one buried deposit can be found on any of the corners. So if you have an equipment to use then it will be a lot easier to confirm but if none then you need to do it the hard way where you need to dig all corners.
hey anonymous,
.how's your hunt?..just want to add this to what sir elmo said..
TURTLES have been placed all over the world.They are used to give us directions, points to a trail or where the treasure is located. We have to carefully observe everything about the turtle's position of the Head,Tail,Legs or Markings on its shell/back..
LOOK closely,
be SAFE..
Good day elmo
i read thisdifferent comments,im have something to share also regarding such treasure,because here in our place where i was become big and i have my family too.im know 37 years old.with 5 kids.our house is located under a big mango tree,this tree according to my grand parents the age of this is during the japanese time.accidentally i have a friend who visit here in our place,he is a treasure hunter,he go here to our place to scan but suddenly the result is negative,i told him if he can scan in our house for a joke,so we scan our house,the scanning is positive,and then we started to dig,we found a skull a old cup and a metal...we dig already about 6 feet already after that there is a stone around it.we stop according to thae hunter we stop coz he afraid if there is a bomb trap on it.and then i wonder there is no roots where we dig..it is possible that there is a treasure in our house?kindly help me for these,,,,more power to you..
It's nice to know that there's a high probability that treasures are buried under your house. For some reason, you stopped your digging activity due to the fear that you might encounter a vintage bomb. Well this is the danger and risk that you need to avoid.
If your friend uses a metal detector for scanning treasure then you can use it as well to avoid vintage bomb traps. Try to dig another way around such as on the side but you still need to proceed at your own risk.
Thinking whether you have dug a hollowed hole due to a root of an old tree should already be cleared by the Skull and Old Cup that you have managed to uncover. Anyway, another possibility is that you might have encountered a grave. However, the mystery can only be solve by further diggings that you need to make.
Hi elmo ,
Have a good day ,what is this mean ,my brother wants to know the sign of x and A HE FOUND in the rock infront of his house and the rock is huge and in the left side there is stream on it.thanks .sweety
SweetyMoosi,
It's nice to have you here sweety. Anyway, the X mark could also be a cross and these two signs have different meanings. If it is an X then the buried item might just be around the area. If it is a cross, then it is a pointer pointing into another location where the item has been hidden.
Hi Elmo,
I just want to ask the meaning of diamond sign curve in the huge stone pointing in the small mountain.and ofcourse the oblong stone marked JIA 1939 with the square sign in the side.hope you can help me.....
jasmine
It seems that you have come across some complicated signs which means that the value of the buried item is so big that it has to be well hidden. The diamond sign could indicate that the hidden items are precious jewelries. But, if it looks like an arrow that points to the mountain as you claim then there could be some other signs around that you have not yet discovered.
JIA 1939 are just common references of the group who had hidden that treasure.
so where's the code.... are you still busy editing it??? T_T
It's nearly done, as you can see. I already started releasing some of them on the new posts.
AFTER TEN FEET WE ENCOUNTERED four layers of cement..around 8 ft by 10 ft.. the first two layers are 6 inches thick, the third is one foot thick and the fourth is already 10 ft thick and still counting.. mixed with gravel and sand and CEMENT sea shells. WE ALSO FOUND A 2.5 INCHES DIAMETER WHITE CORAL HEART SHAPE WITH MORE THAN 50 PENCIL POINT SMALL HOLES ON IT. IN ADDITION WE ALSO FOUND 3CEMENT CIRCLES (stone inside) . .. we do not have a MAP. HOWEVER WE FOUND THESE CEMENT IN A TRIANGLE FORMED THREE BAMBOO TREES . WE JUST STUMBLED ON THIS WHEN WE were planting pipes for water. TNX IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR COMMENT
Hello Elmo,
i just wanna know the heart sign with an x sign inside...
and also for the two footprints..
thanks,
Laisa...
Laisa,
We do all have a heart right? and it's what keeps us alive on this world. It's importance is the same in terms of the Japanese Treasure signs. Along with the X mark inside, it tells you that the treasure is hidden exactly on that spot.
Zupergold,
In no time, I'm sure that you will find the valuable item that has been hidden on that place. Good luck and nice work!
門 this means door but inside of it 532 was written, can you tell me the meaning of this..... I saw this character drawn in a Japanese Map... thanks
we just started diggings in our last night and at one meter we found a stone curved into a SKULL and in reverse it look like a HAT or CAP... Elmo we didn't use a metal detector cause we don't one but we possesed a map... by the way about 門 with 532 written inside... can you tell the meaning of this sign... thanks and more power.
lemmor
hi sir Elmo ,
Greetings,we have reached 2ft. in our project,i just want to ask on what is the meaning of the 3 rocks that pointing n0rth the first rock from south is the largest and the 3rd one from north is the smallest..when we follow the rocks we found a bottle of coke ..
The color of the soil is black
,please i need your advice sir .
thankyou and God Bless
532 is an orientation guide on the site. there is a conversion to degrees that the japs used to locate the target. that is the way to locate the door.
To the person asking about the 532 sign,
There's your answer above and thanks to the person who has provided the answer for you.
To the person who reached 2ft of digging,
Keep going, dig deeper. The Japanese won't just bury their treasure at that length of deepness especially when the items buried are a large pile of treasures.
To the person who owns the illustration,
I'm really sorry about it. It won't happen again Sir.
In a big rock that is almost in a triangle shape, 4 meters high. in one corner in 1.80 meters there is the head of a bear rock shaped, that looks on the east. In front it has an old road around 5 meters away. On its left, in north east is a stream. behind the bear head is a big fish rock shaped , carved on the stream side . behind the rock is carved a triangle in 1.5 meter high.
If you see this rock from the distance it looks like an eagle. the stream formed a Y shape with another stream 30 meters away from the bear head.the big stream came from up hill on the left, the little stream goes by a field.
Please help me understand.
Thank you!
I have encountered similar signs that you have mentioned on our previous treasure hunting activities where we have found the hidden items near the stream or river especially where the flow of water makes a slight shift of direction.
I suggest that you survey the streams for any additional signs that may lead you into the exact location of the item.
for the person answered my question about 532.... can you please teach me how to used this orientation guide and conversion to degrees you mentioned.... thanks in advance and GodBless

hi sir good day we have found a giant stone form into a turtle no feet one eye and its look like sleeping and its head facing north..please help us sir what it does mean?
Prosphector,
It could be a pointer. I suggest checking the northern area for any additional signs.
hi elmo,
we found a six turtle sign ,what was that means
pisces
hi sir elmo,
at first we found a footprint and then a six turtle made of cement facing in a different location what is than means?
hi elmo,
we found six turtle made of stone or cement and it facing in a different location what was that means?
hi sir,,
in our area we found a turtle with no legs, and we found out a 2 rope separately attach to the turtle and going down approximately 2 feet and the two ropes join together coiled approx. 1.5 meter.
what does this indicates?
thx. a lot. more power to you!
to elmo,,,my family and some close relatives are also trying to hunt lost treasure. they also encounter black soil,gray and just like wax. and a cement inside the hole. the cement may be around 2ft thickness, but still cannot locate where the treasure, the encounter a lots of shell or clam shell,what is that mean and they are abt,30m or more depth. how long they dig more?
Pisces,
Any animal signs such as a Turtle, Duck, Frog and etc... are pointers. Since you have found six turtles facing at different location it means that you have to check the area that they are pointing at for any additional signs.
Sometimes, some animal signs doesn't mean that they are pointing the object/treasure by facing them directly. Some of these signs can be the reverse which means that they are pointing the object behind their back. Thus, I also suggest that you check the back areas.
About the 2 Ropes that are attached to the turtle,
In most cases, all you have to do is to follow the ropes which is supposed to lead directly into the buried item.
About the question, 'how long do they dig more?',
30 meters is very deep that I highly doubt that you might be able to reach water coming out from the ground.
Basing from your own statement, it seems that you have already found the treasure itself. Due to ignorance maybe, you just don't know it. Anyway, this is not the place to discuss it. I suggest contacting me on my email to tell you what it is and how to obtain it.
what Does MUNCIS, Gen Fun CHeng and a symbol of a jar wrttien in a big lat stone mean? i have this in our farm lot near the river.
In our farm in almost seven years of working I always found oily water on top of soil...this happen only every dry season...what it means? it is possible that there's a hidden treasure?

Hi Elmo,
We also have an area and upon reaching 8ft below the ground, we saw a stone wherein a heart sign with a dot on the center is carved. Alongside, we also found a turtle-shaped rock w/out head, feet and tail facing down. At almost 20 ft, we used a detector and found a big stone around 1 ton. We lifted it from the digging area and on that same spot where the big stone was first located, we saw a flat, cemented surface which looked like a tomb with a size of 4ftx4ft. On that spot, we continued digging, reaching 16 ft of cements only, no sand, stones, only cements. at 17 ft, we observed that the water became oily and at the same time, there is already fine sand and the cements were gone. (note: those cements were not that hard to break because it was kinda made of mud mixed w/ cement.)
What does these mean? i have heard from other treasure hunters that the moment you encounter fine sand and the water becomes oily, you just need to dig 5-6 ft more before reaching the buried item. What is your comment on this?
Thanks,
Aquarius
Sir good day
we are a beginner on treasure hunting FYI one japanese visit my house sometime 2006 and he try to locate a treasure around our house using his detector and he said that there might be a treasure burried at the back of our house today we tried to dig it and we already reach about 20 feet deep and we still found no signs. the layer of the ground are rocks then soft soil then rocks can you give us any advise to our activity? thank you very much
First of all, I would like to apologize with the Forum that I had previously setup as I temporarily disabled since some part of the script do have errors.
@Aquarius,
Digging 20 ft deep down the ground and ended up with a layer of fine sand isn't yet the end of the line as my own guess. Most of my fellow treasure hunters claimed that the maximum depth that you should attain is 30 ft. Anyway, before I can give you my own opinion, I need to know some details about the fine sand that you have encountered such as the color, scent and type.
@The Beginner
Yes there is a possibility that there are treasures hidden on some part of your land-property. But, pin-pointing the exact location is the hardest part of the job. My best advice would be to look for some signs around then if you have found any, come back to me so that we can interpret what it actually means.
Dear Elmo,
My 57 year old father got interested in digging our property as several treasure hunters from different parts of the Philippines came and ask for some key spots like the Japs garrison, the stream, the old Japs man-made bridge etc... All these were answered by my father with uncertainty as he was not yet born during the world war 2.
Our 3-hectare land mostly of nipa located near the streams had coconut trees on it and some 3 kilometers away from the Japs garrison. My great grandfather told my father stories of General Honda usually visiting him and 2 of his subordinates almost every day that one single week in the duration of their stay in the garrison. My great grandpa would always wonder why his men, after sometime of chatting, would always come to him muddy.... Found in our land are signs like X, M, Heart, triangle, diamond sign, boot, tear, club, A, dots - all these signs are carved on the coconut trees.. And the signs were observed to be there since my father was 15... Does this mean our land had deposits of treasure?
Melchizedek
Melchizedek,
All those that you have mentioned such as the old Japanese Garrison, Coconuts, Streams and etc... are good positive signs that there are treasures hidden on some part of your own land. I said 'are' because it seems that there are several deposits that has been buried by the Japanese Soldiers.
You should definitely try to start decoding those signs that you found and try to dig some of your prospected spot. However, you should be aware of the risks that are involve. Good luck!
I just want to ask,,60ft,from the surface we found a vertical tube made of cemented clay 8 inc.in diameter and 12ft,down but full of hard clay,,what is the meaning of that,, thanks
The tube is actually an indicator. All you have to do is to follow the tube way down until to its end. As for the clay about why it is so hard to be penetrated with your digging tools, special chemical had been mixed.
hi sir elmo. i am from the philippines we already digged 16 ft and we found signs like turtles, heart, an old canister labeled "veedol" with a number 14 under it, and a glass shaped like this (_) with a number 14 on the bottom of this. we keep digging and we found 3 caves and the one has blocks at the end. i hope you can help us with this we also found a bird shaped stone and so many shells witch we think thats what they eat.
hi elmo what does an upside down turtle with no head, foot and tail means?
hello, may I just ask...what's the meaning of a metal pyramid-shaped with like some stairs with characters I can't understand. This metal is enclosed in a black stone. Thanks!
@Jane,
All I can say is keep it up. Those items that you have recovered are all positive signs that the hidden treasure is just around the corner. The turtles, hearts and old canisters are pointers pointing into the location of the hidden item. Since you have already uncovered 3 caves, I suggest you to explore them using any of your reliable detector.
Good luck!
@Upside Down Turtle,
It means that something has been hidden somewhere around that spot.
@Pyramid Shape,
The pyramid indicates that you have to check the three corners which means that you have to dig at these locations. While the stairs might indicate the distance from the sign or the depth of how much you are going to dig.
Good day sir elmo,
what is the meaning of the sign like a beak of a bird pointing downward..
thanks!
hello sir,
Our neighbor told me that his always dreaming that somewhere in there lot he dream of buried treasure. So out of curiosity we have provided some time to visit the place. There we saw a huge stone that is almost covered with cement red in color and there parents told us that before there was mango tree beside the stone.. What does it mean sir?
Hi sir elmo,
Im a beginner in treasure hunting I have disccover a big rock on the upper portion of our place and its covered with a red cement and small gravels.. Is there a possibility that the treasure is burried on that area?
Thank you!
@Beak of a bird,
Since it is pointing downward, it means that you have to continue digging a little bit more.
@Dream of buried treasure,
There is a possibility of treasure hidden on that area but I suggest that you survey the place and search for any possible signs. For the dreamer, you have to advice him or her to take note more of his or her dreams as it can show you the shortcut on recovering these buried items.
@Red Cement and small gravels,
Yes provided that the rock has been there for a very long time. Anyway, you might want to check for any signs around the rock and tell me later what you may be able to find.
Hi. Mr. Elmo...my family and some close relatives are also trying to hunt we have encountered a lots of shell or clam shell,lobster clam,3 heart stone, fish engrave stone, what is that mean and they are abt,30m or more depth.. pls. let me know about this... tnx
@Blue
If the location of the site that you're digging is far away from any large bodies of water such as river then chances are, they are intentionally placed there as signs. If this is the case then it only means that you are already near the buried item.
what is the meaning of stones with asphalt in the treasure site?
What does it mean of a rock inside a cave that looks like a hanging snake that bend a bit toward a big rock on the soil... around7 that big rock on the soil we have found lots of sea shell and a big turtle back, since this cave is 10miles away from the seashore?
i am just new with this TH and in one of our site we found something like a concrete culvert beside a dead creek which is Y in form. i would like to ask a favor what does it mean, or is this a possible sign of treasure, i am posting the said concrete culvert for you to a have a clearer description of what we have found more or less 5 ft. below, in your email add
To all,
For those who want their signs to be interpreted, please send me the details via my email which can be found at the Contact Page. I prefer this method as you can always include a photo of the signs that you have found. Thanks...
regarding the 532 written on the map... it is not a bearing orientation.... it's a amount of a treasure buried (532 billion yen 1944 currency)
lemmor
hi elmo, i would like to ask the five holes engraved on the bigrock of my brother s backyard?
@Reply to Five Holes,
I would suggest that you send a photo of the rock with five holes as it can be interpreted in different ways.
