Where are the Clues to the Treasure Boxes?
The clues to the 5 different treasure boxes are inside the book – There’s Treasure Inside.

Jon Collins-Black has commented that a person does not have to be a genius or solve any grand cipher to find a treasure box. He believes all treasure box locations can be discovered by solving the clues in the book and that they will be found.
What Clues Have Been Solved?
Many clues are thought found for each of the boxes. Until a box is found the theories about the clues and where they lead are just that – theories. In the book Jon warns about following others and encourages following your own ideas and thoughts.
Nonetheless – There are quite a few clues which most searchers agree on. More on these here: Found Clues
What Advice Does Jon Collins-Black Give to Find His Treasure Boxes?
- Read through the book once – thoughtfully. Then read again (and again…)
- JCB says he has subtly placed many clues within the text. Jot down anything that makes your Spidey sense tingle.
- Let your thoughts marinate on the book after you finish it – then when you read it again you may find the clues more easily.
- If something interests you in the book – investigate it further. That may have been his intention. He mentions you never know what you may discover.
- Don’t overlook any part of the book – clues could be anywhere for the LS Box (Lion’s Share box) (except the safety guidance section)
- The 4 chapters in part two contain – primarily – all you need to discover the location of those particular treasure boxes featured in the chapters (the 4 smaller boxes).
- Clues for the largest box could be anywhere – and even a clue or two in his children’s book – Our Unbreakable Thread
- He also reminds readers that you don’t have to be a genius to solve the locations of his treasure boxes.
- Learn from the stories
- You won’t need to understand every clue to gain the full picture
- Value your own thoughts and opinions on the hunt

Facts on Locations of the Hidden Treasure Boxes:

- Never need to wade through/cross high water
