trueblue, It may take some time for a lot of artifacts to be found on site #3. The below quote from 2005. States that the wreck is Scattered over 1 mile. Just as I stated in an earlier post, that the wreck was scattered in a Hurricane. Which certain other posters stated was not true. ( I guess you can't believe everything posted on a message board.)

It takes a while to uncover that much sand looking for artifacts.
Since the founder recovered many turkey size Silver Platters
in 2005. I would call Silver Treasure and can't wait to see what else is uncovered by SFRX.

While exploring the wreck in late August, they found several artifacts that boosted their hopes. "Our artifact collection is pretty interesting," Funk said. "We have enough artifacts, I think, to show what period they belong to." There's the intact, silver-handled pistol and what appears to be a boarding sword, which has a curved blade and was known to be used by fighting mariners. The collection also includes some cannon balls, pewter plates and a stack of silver platters, which Funk said are beautifully embossed. "They look like a big turkey platter," he said. "We're sending (the collection) to a conservation lab for more study."

In the meantime, Funk and his partners will work on renewing the salvaging permits they need from various state agencies, such as the state Division of Historical Resources. Permitted salvagers can end up owning items they find, but 20 percent of the value of found treasure goes to the state.

The dive site worked by Funk's team stretches diagonally for perhaps a mile
