Wow! Great pedigree! I once had a holed example of one of these which I wore on my "Holey Gold Hat".
I concur with this. It has the look of one of those ornamental costume jewelry pieces. Some do have some gold content, I think, while others are...
Fantastic coins. Most of us, myself included, can only dream of owning one. I couldn't afford one even at melt value. Shipwreck pedigrees are...

All silver! That's an accomplishment! Congrats, @Andres2! Won't repost my modest 12C set here, since it was mixed silver and bronze. Almost...
