The Fantome Site Today
Like much about the War of 1812, the wreck of the Fantome largely was forgotten – although hundreds of coins from that era were found by local scuba divers, beginning in the 1960s. The bulk of the Washington valuables believed to have been aboard the Fantome herself and the lost “Plunder Ships” has never been recovered.

In 2005, Capt. Robert MacKinnon, president of Artifact Recovery & Conservation, Inc. (ARC), a wholly owned subsidiary of Sovereign Explorations Associates International, Inc. (SEAI), was granted a Provincial Research Permit for the area in and around the Fantome wreck site. Now designated SBNS-2, this site consists of at least four primary wrecks – the Fantome and three “Plunder Ships.” The recent recovery from the site of British military uniform buttons and U.S. coins from the period suggest that ARC is honing in on what may be key artifacts from the War of 1812. Among them could be White House treasures that Dolley Madison forsook to save George Washington’s portrait, and which the British Navy was unable to get safely ashore.
