Two silversmiths from Nanaimo are hiding their hand-poured silver creations in local parks for people to go out and find.
"We drop silver and you find it," said Rob Zeiler of Black Label Bullion.
Zeiler, along with Kevin Driver of WestKoast Melts and Bullion, have created a Facebook page called Vancouver Island Treasure Hunting.
"The reward is silver in the end, but there’s just so many rewards," said Driver.
The purpose of their treasure hunt is for people to get out and enjoy the wonderful parks the island has to offer.
"Let’s get everyone seeing this stuff," said Zeiler.
The pair started their treasure hunt last week and have hidden three silver pieces at three parks on the Mid-Island at Neck Point Park and Pipers Lagoon in Nanaimo, and Transfer Beach in Ladysmith.
