If you can see the gold sneakily stored away in a super quick time without using a map then you could be the world's greatest pirate.

The amazing artwork shows a pair of swashbuckling buffoons trying to hunt down the treasure using a pretty confusing guide.

Packed onto a beautiful island, surrounded by luscious blue waters walls and towering trees, the pirate search party looks to be in full swing - even if they're looking in all the wrong places.

The scene might look pretty normal at first glance but once you find out there's a very expensive chest somewhere on the island your eyes start to open up as the hunt begins.

Whip out your best telescope and channel your inner Jack Sparrow as it's time to go treasure hunting.

A person with great vision should be able to quickly track down the rich rewards and grab it before it’s too late and it ends up in the clutches of a rival pirate pair.

But not to panic, as the pirates on the sandy beach don't look like they have any idea where to even start searching.

Use those 10 seconds wisely however, as they'll soon begin to understand the map and figure out exactly where to look.

But for a brainteaser that seems so easy the treasure is nowhere to be seen and has left many baffled, calling the puzzle impossible.

The chest cheekily blends in with the things around it and it's hardly noticeable to those without the watchful eyes of an elite pirate.

If you can solve this challenging optical illusion, you could make a brilliant treasure hunter with your eye for gold and clever problem-solving brain.

At an initial glance there is no chance someone has left their treasure alone on the island without anyone noticing it but the deeper you search the quicker it appears.

The priceless reward is hidden deep within the photo but has been expertly hidden meaning you’re bound to run out of time and never have the endless riches all to yourself.

Studies have shown, people who regularly challenge themselves with optical illusions and puzzles see big improvements in their problem-solving skills, concentration and attention.

Psychologists at The University of Glasgow found that staring at an optical illusion can improve eye sight by allowing you to see small print.

And according to  "These visual puzzles can give you a good mental workout that can, in turn, help you think more efficiently and solve problems more easily."

A clever artist from posted the work that has kept people entertained for ages searching for the correct answer.

In this particular piece, people with a high visual IQ should be able to spot it within seconds and leave themselves enough time to enjoy the rest of the image.

If you still can’t find the treasure here's a big clue.

Instead of it being buried in the sand this cheeky gold-filled chest is somewhere just out of reach.
