              | Recovered from the wreck of the Spanish
                galleon Santa Margarita , sister
                ship to the Atocha.  Both were lost during a hurricane near
                the Florida Keys on September 6, 1622 and were salvaged by Mel
                Fisher and his company, Treasure Salvors Inc.  Santa
                Margarita coins are rare in comparison to those from the
                Atocha. Coin description:  Grade 2+ (listed as a 
				grade I on the insert tag and grade II on the certificate), Shield type 
				cob, 8 reales, Potosi mint, assayer Q, circa 1613-1616.  
				Nice full cross with all lions and castles visible in the cross 
				quadrants.  Equally nice shield side with most of the shield 
				elements visible along with the mint and assayer marks P and Q at left.  
				An excellent Santa Margarita coin.  
				Supplied with the original photo certificate of authenticity 
				issued by Treasure Salvors, Inc.  |

              Sea Salvaged - most likely recovered from the Atocha, but 
				lacking the paperwork to 
				positively identify it as such.  Using Mel Fisher's grading system, 
				this would be graded as grade 1 coin. Coin 
				description:   Shield type cob, Potosi
              mint, Philip III, assayer T, dated 1620.  Excellent, 
				nicely centered full cross with all lions and castles 
				boldly visible in the cross quadrants along with 20 of the date 
				1620 located at the 11 o'clock position along the edge.  
				Nearly full 
				shield with  
				the crown partially visible above along with a hint of the mint and assayer marks P 
				and T at left.  A 
				nice sea salvaged cob with particularly beautiful cross side 
				details.  
				Supplied with a New 
				World Treasures photo type Certificate of Authenticity.  |

              | Recovered from the Lucayan Beach
                wreck, named after Lucayan Beach Grand Bahama Island, where the 
				wreck was discovered in 1964.   Popular belief ties 
				this wreck to the Dutch hero Piet Heyn who captured the entire 
				1628 Spanish fleet at Matanzas Bay, Cuba.   Two of his 
				ships were lost near Grand Bahama Island during their return 
				voyage home; it seems likely that the Lucayan Beach wreck is one 
				of Heyn's lost ships. Coin description:  Shield 
				type cob, 8 reales, Mexico mint, Philip IV, assayer D, circa 
				1620's.  Excellent, deeply struck full cross with 
				two bold castles and one bold lion visible in the cross quadrants.  
				Deep struck, nearly full shield with 
				mint and assayer marks oM and D at left.  A large, heavy, 
				ruggedly appealing Mexico cob; one of the nicest we've seen from 
				this wreck.  Supplied with 
				the original Spink and Son, LTD display box with small 
				certificate and a New World Treasures photo certificate of authenticity.  |

				mint, Philip V, dated 1738.  This
                is a high end grade 1 pillar dollar
