Quote: While damaged from being on the ocean floor for nearly 500 years, the coin was rescued, carefully conserved, and is now part of the curated Seafarer collection along with over 950 other period artifacts from the JBAS.

"950 period artifacts" sounds impressive but what are they exactly? Chips and pieces of ceramics; pottery shards, iron spikes, etc.? With respect to the coin, it is what it is but not very impressive. I assure you, by personal experience, there was a time when one could dive and metal detect most anyone of the "salvaged" 1733 Spanish shipwrecks in the Florida Keys, and find a coin or two.

As stated previously, with the site totally lacking any cannons and being in 80 ft. of water, an extreme depth for free diving back in Spanish Colonial days, this ship was stripped before being scuttled. (Here again just my opinion) Applying common sense, is one to believe that even if they had been able, they would salvage a minimal of 26 2,500 pound cannons (+ or -) but leave tons of gold and silver. Something I believe most of you just don't want to think about.
