Original Atocha Shipwreck coin unmounted complete with the original certificate from Treasure Salvors INC. Signed by Mel Fisher. 

Grade 1 dictates that the coin was retrieved from the almost middle of the pack (motherload) in the wreckage with very corrosion compared to Grade 3 or 4.

An 8 Reales silver coin was approximately equivalent to one month’s pay for a sailor in the 1600’s.

Atocha Coinsについて

1622年9月6日、スペイン王国から新世界へ金、宝石、その他の貴重品を運んでいた「Nuestra Señora de Atocha」(春の聖母)という名の船が、フロリダ州キーウェスト沖で転覆し、その宝は何百年もの間海中に沈むことになった。

この状況が一変したのは1969年で、アメリカ人トレジャーハンターのメル・フィッシャー率いるスキューバダイバーのチームが、フロリダキーズの海底で失われた宝を探し始めた。過酷な探索の末、フィッシャーの息子ケイン・フィッシャーから無線連絡が入り、チームがついにスペインの宝を見つけたのだと歓喜の声を上げた。

このかけがえのない発見をめぐり、フロリダ州政府はその難破船の所有権を主張し、8年にわたる法廷闘争が始まった。1982年7月1日、米国最高裁判所はフィッシャーのチームに有利な判決を下し、難破船の財宝すべての権利を与えた。

2014年、Nuestra Señora de Atochaは、引き揚げられた難破船として最も価値が高いとしてギネス世界記録に登録された。これは、およそ40トンの金と銀、71 lb相当のコロンビア産エメラルドなど、数々の遺物を積んでいたためである。
