I was looking through some old stuff the other day when I came across this prism. There's a pretty cool story behind it. About 250 years ago, the expulsion of the acadians took place in Nova scotia, Canada. The English had just taken over the acadian's fort and were in the process of clearing the province of acadians. Before the English could get their ships into port, the acadians made maps and burried their valuables like gold,silverwear, plates and anything else of value. Most of them canme back later to retrieve it but some people never made it. My grandfather lived in the area where the acadians lived. About 40 years ago, a man came to my grandfather and asked him if he could dig for this acadian treasure. He would keep 10% and give him the rest. He had a map and knew where it was. He dug a hole about 20 feet wide by 20 feet deep in his front lawn. One day he disappeared and never came back to fill in the hole. while filling in the hole they found this prism. Did he find acadian treasure? or just leave them with a hole to fill in?
