Geocache Description:


Do not go to the posted coordinates - although the old bank building reminds me of some famous architecture.  Solve the puzzle to get the final coordinates.

___________________________________________________________

When I recently visited Italy and Greece I was enthralled by the divine beauty of nature and architecture there.  I saw fields of sunflowers, nautilus shells on the beaches, the Parthenon, the Last Supper mural, the Leaning Tower, and much more. At that last spot I noticed the following numbers in the margins of some pages in a well-known book.

    1          2           N

   65        326       22

1758     3629       18

And what do you know, they gave me enough information to find the cache hidden nearby.

BYOP.  Please replace as found.

Note on Sept 11, 2024:  The container kept coming up missing so I moved it to a more secluded spot.  Puzzle has been updated to reflect this change.  If your coordinates are from a solution before 9/11/24, you need to recalculate.  I also bumped up the difficulty because it is a litle harder to find.
