First hit at the hidden treasure

After much of drillings, the explorers discovered two chests filled with coins. After getting to these chests of coins, the explorers observed that the surface deep inside the pit was loose so they came back in 1850 to dig another parallel tunnel over to the Money Pit, but that effort went in vain as well. As water began to flow in and pumping was of no help as well. However, an incredulous discovery was made at this moment.
