Shipwreck Coins
Shipwreck coins are captivating treasures that connect us to the maritime trade and exploration of centuries past. Recovered from the depths of oceans and seas, these coins—often gold and silver pieces—bear the marks of their underwater journeys, such as corrosion or encrustation, adding to their allure. Many originate from famed shipwrecks of the Spanish galleons that transported wealth from the New World to Europe, often lost to storms or pirates. Each coin tells a story of adventure, tragedy, and history, making them highly prized by collectors for their rarity, historical significance, and the mystery surrounding their voyages.
