Please Note: This is an authentic Atocha Shipwreck Treasure Coin, and you will receive the exact pendant in the photographs and description.
Atocha is the most famous Spanish galleon in shipwreck history! Mel Fisher spent 16 years searching for her... and every day he would tell his divers: “Today’s the Day!” Years of trials and heartbreak were endured, along with attacks by the State and Federal government, who wanted to claim what Fisher found along the way. At last, one fateful morning in 1985 he hit the “mother load...” millions upon millions in glittering Spanish silver and gold!
Robert's Notes: If you want a truly unique Atocha treasure coin, this is the one for you!
Dated Atocha coins are extremely rare! Especially 4 reales with this provenance, and in such good condition! This coin is #SR-1574 from the 1974 Florida State division with Treasure Salvors right at the beginning of Mel Fisher's 8 year legal battle with the state and U.S. government, when they tried to take Atocha away from him! This was recovered 11 years before Fisher and his crew "hit the mother load" in 1985!
This piece is dated 1620, with a "Z" for the "2" which happened from time to time with assayer "T", Juan Ximenez de Tapia
Most of the treasure on board Atocha was the silver dollar sized 8 reales. Atocha coins are becoming very difficult to source, and we are excited to be able to offer this stunning coin at this price.
