Centuries-old loot linked to ‘King of the Pirates’ discovered — with a shocking NYC connection

A newly unearthed treasure trove of pirate history has now been found to have New York roots. A peaceful Rhode Island fruit orchard was secretly hiding a centuries-old piece of history — until amateur treasure hunter James Bailey unexpectedly struck gold. Bailey isn’t a professional historian, but he has an uncanny knack for unearthing the past. Sweeping his metal detector across the dirt, he picked up a signal that led to a rare coin tied to a famous New Yorker — and a legendary pirate. The artifact turned out to be a 17th-century Arabian coin once pocketed by English pirate Captain Henry Every, who famously escaped to the American colonies after pulling off a brutal high-seas heist in the Red Sea. James Bailey discovered a centuries-old coin thought to be loot from the “King of the Pirates.” The Trustees of the British Museum Bailey told the Associated Press he was stunned when he dug out the dime-sized silver coin stamped with Arabic lettering. He believes it was minted in Yemen in 1693 before Captain Every carried it across the Atlantic. The bizarre and hilarious chaos on cruise ships exposed — including pirates, pot, and polar bears Every cemented his status

Episode 390: Mansfield, MA – 6/28/2008 (YouTube Version)

When you add up all of the venues that Pearl Jam has played on multiple occasions, the amphitheater known to many as Great Woods outside of Boston is near the top of the all-time list. The highlight of their eleven visits is unquestionably the three night stay in 2003 known to fans as “The Experiment” where the band played nearly every song in their catalog. 2008 was their first time returning to Mansfield since the historic run, and while they didn’t achieve nearly the same goal as they did five years prior, it was starting to mark an end of a chapter. This would be their final year touring for their self titled record, and they’d head back into the studio to work on Backspacer shortly after the completion of this tour.
