Calling all treasure hunters! A Maine couple is challenging anyone and everyone to solve numerous clues that lead to a $20,000 prize.

The Lincoln County News reports the hunt was created by Maine residents Kurt and Kelly Stokes, who say the treasure hunt is a celebration of the state's 200th birthday last year.

In order to find the treasure, you must first discover the location of seven "Dirigo Stones," which, when combined, reveal the location of the $20,000 prize.

So where do you start? Well, you need to purchase a treasure hunting kit that includes a special deck of playing cards that display images of "Maine’s most beautiful places."

The kit also includes a manual explaining the four total steps of the hunt that, when completed, decipher a paragraph that reveals the location of the "Dirigo Stones," thus leading you to the treasure.
