Here’s my S.S. Central America gold. Not a coin but it’s still gold. It’s called a “pinch”.

 

I think you'd have to pay me quite a lot of millions of dollars to spend ten years in jail.

 

isn't he the one with the son that has been searching for treasure also?

 

Here's a news clip that shows some of the gold coins, also there was a movie made about this ship wreck, I can't be sure but I think it's called 'Ship of Gold', great movie! It's a shame that Tommy Thompson got greedy and kept or lost over 500 gold coins, honestly I think he got greedy and got ripped off for the gold or he's a nutjob! Who in their right mind would spend 10 years in jail instead of speaking up? Not me that's for sure!

 

Made me think of GD..... when I read it
