It’s one more fascinating reflection of a magical time in this treasure’s history.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(164, 11, 11);\"\u003eThis coin comes with its original, historic Treasure Salvor's, Inc., raised seal Certificate issued in 1986. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(164, 11, 11);\"\u003eLong before Mel Fisher and his dedicated crew \"hit the motherlode,\" someone believed in Fisher and the magic and mystery of searching for a lost Spanish galleon.
