Plot Synopsis

LOST GOLD is a one-hour reality series that follows brothers Josh and Jesse Feldman, as these American prospectors and treasure hunters travel across the United States in search of gold stashes that have been lost for generations. With a family history steeped in lost mines, buried gold and Old West lore, the Arizona natives aren't your typical treasure hunters. To unravel these more than 100-year-old mysteries, the Feldmans put themselves in the shoes of the people of the era. Every hunt is grounded in history: they search for old maps, diaries and records, as well as connect with locals who have intimate knowledge of the area. With reverence for the past and a taste for adventure, the brothers track legends and clues across the vast American Frontier in search of unfound riches. Throughout each of the six one-hour episodes, their dogged determination will uncover new leads, fresh perspectives on history and even gold. On Thursday, November 30, 2017 at 11pm ET/PT, Travel Channel premiered the series pilot, but the cable channel had no other episodes on its schedule at that time. In the pilot, "The Lost Conchise Strongboxes," Josh and Jesse head into the rugged desert of southeast Arizona to track the history of a legendary Apache chief said to have buried two strongboxes of gold somewhere in the region's imposing mountains. More than 13 months later, LOST GOLD returned for its official series premiere on Monday, January 14, 2019 at 10pm ET/PT on Travel Channel. In the series opener, "Milton Sharp's Buried Loot," Josh and Jesse Feldman trek across California and Nevada chasing the trail of Milton Sharp, also known as "The Gentleman Bandit," a prolific stagecoach robber from 1880, whose missing loot has never been recovered.
