Founded in 1518, it was the center of shipping commerce in the Caribbean Sea during the latter half of the 17th century. It was destroyed by an earthquake in 1692.  Port Royal was once home to privateers employed to nip at superpower Spain’s empire when smaller European powers dared not directly make war on Spain. As a port city, it was notorious for its gaudy displays of wealth and loose morals and was a popular homeport for the English and Dutch sponsored privateers to spend their treasure during the 17th century.   When those governments abandoned the practice of issuing letters of marque against the Spanish treasure fleets and possessions in the later 16th century, many privateers turned pirate and used the city as their main base during the heyday of the Caribbean pirates in the 17th century. Pirates from around the world congregated at Port Royal coming from waters as far away as Madagascar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eYour Captain Jack Shilling Necklace Comes Complete with:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOur 100% Authentic Lifetime Guarantee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Detailed, Customized, Multi-Page Photo Certificate of Authenticity Researched and Written by Robert Lewis Knecht\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBritain's First Coins Historic Brief\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Creation of the Medieval Long Cross Pennies Historic Brief\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoin Clipping, High Treason, a Tax on Windows and a Man Named Newton Historic Brief\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTreasure Hunters Gazette Booklet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMini Museum Display for when you are not wearing your treasure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Treasure Jewelry Care Card\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Cannon Beach Treasure Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43653459214583,"sku":"","price":1290.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0650\/4193\/products\/9151KingGeorgeIIIGreatBritainShillingPendant01.jpg?v=1670708670"},{"product_id":"el-cazador-shipwreck-1783-8-reale-piece-of-8-14k-gold-silver-treasure-coin-pendant-artifact-9249","title":"El Cazador Shipwreck 1783 8 Reale Piece of 8 14K Gold \u0026 Sterling Silver Pendant | Artifact #9249","description":"\u003ch1\u003eThe Classic 8 Reale Silver \"Piece of Eight\" Pendant from the Shipwreck \u003cem\u003eEl Cazador \u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #990000;\"\u003e\u003ci\u003ePlease Note: This is an authentic \u003c\/i\u003eEl Cazador\u003ci\u003e Shipwreck Treasure Coin, and you will receive the exact pendant in the photographs and description.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #990000;\"\u003eFOR PENDANT SIZE SEE COIN DETAILS BELOW\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #990000;\"\u003eFrom the personal collection of our old friend,\u003cem\u003e El Cazador\u003c\/em\u003e's Salvage Master, Craig Boyd - A Cannon Beach Treasure Exclusive.

Roman Emperors had their birth name, their successive titling, as they rose through the ranks from military to political, until finally becoming emperor.  And, remember, Marcus Aurelius was \"adopted\" by his predecessor, Antoninus Pius (an Emperor could choose someone to succeed him from outside his immediate family, \"adopting\" him as heir apparent).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo, Marcus Aurelius as we know him today, was successively:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarcus Annius Catilius Severus at birth, Marcus Annius Verus in 124 AD, Marcus Aelius Aurelius Verus Caesar in 138 AD, and, when he became emperor in 161 AD, his official regnal name was Imperator Caesar Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo, the Antoninus you often see on Aurelius' coins is part of his official regnal name.
