Rare Emerald Discovered in 300-Year-Old Shipwreck Could Sell for $70,000
Proceeds from the sale will go toward humanitarian efforts in Ukraine
In 1622, a ship called the Nuestra Señora de Atocha sank in a hurricane—with a 6.25-carat emerald, among many other treasures, on board. Soon, that emerald will be sold at Sotheby’s Magnificent Jewels auction, where it is expected to fetch between $50,000 and $70,000.
