Hitler's $78m treasure located by a Dutch man

The score is believed to be the key to a cache of lost gold and diamonds belonging to the Nazi leader and buried somewhere in Mittenwald, Germany . It is thought the marks and typewritten com ments above each line of music were added by Hitler's secretary Martin Bormann as clues to the whereabouts of the so-called `Tears of the Wolf '.

Wolf was Hitler's nick name among his inner circle, with tears referring to his diamonds, `mirror.co.uk' reported. Whistler now says that the treasure is buried behind the barbed wire of a German army depot in Mittenwald.

Dutch filmmaker Leon Giesen has made three excava tions around the town but Whistler believes he now has the spot “to the centimetre“.Whistler claims to have discovered a typical number that returns over and over again.“The more I studied the piece, the more I discovered. The letters, the number and the signs reveal a route,“ he said.
