These are cool. I have a couple denominations from this shipwreck. My Wife had bought them for incredible prices. I can post some pics after all my minions are off to school.

 

60-70 for the example you posted. More if it has the wooden box with the booklet.

 

Crap! Now I want one!

 

Here are my examples from the Cazador. We got good deals, not as good as you though!

 

This 8 Reales coin came from the dutch VOC ship Rooswijck , paid 147 pound sterling, unslabbed but with COA . condition: about Uncirculated.
I like the so called tulip edge.

99% of all shipwreck coins went on board in uncirculated condition, if they were out of their wooden cases, near iron or copper objects on the seafloor during a couple of hundred years,they suffered, even to the point of complete dissolving.
On the other hand if they survived in their cotton bags in their original wooden cases
they often submerge in like new condition.

 

Wow this amazing!! The edge is intricate, I love it!

 

A slab would only hide that beautiful coin edge.

 

That's true beauty coin and plenty of history love it.

 

Johanna wreck off Cape Town S.A. this was a grounding wreck this cob is so smooth from a wash in the sands

 

Does anyone know if cast gold or silver submerged prior to the first atomic blasts has value to those making high end instrumentation or electronics? For some reason, I'm thinking silver does as well as ferrous metal. I learned about this from the guy who invented the PRISM rebreather and trains seals, smugglers, underwater welders/arc gougers etc in how to use them.

 

Any chance Is there a website to tell more of this tale?

 

Let me look I will post a link

 

Thank you.

 

Google the ships name El Cazador then select how a ship wreck changed the shape of America .
