The Shogun's Last Treasure, The Veil Of Veronica & Uncovering More Artifacts

Legend says that 19th century Shoguns hid gold coins worth 10 trillion Yen on Mount Akagi to keep them from falling into the hands of the incoming Meiji government. Three generations of one family have searched for the coins. The Veil of Veronica, a revered Catholic relic believed to bear Christ's image from the Crucifixion, was once a major pilgrimage draw in Rome.
