Atocha
Silver is more pure than Sterling Silver!
The
silver coin was hand cast using a formulated blend of silver ingots
recovered from the Sunken Treasure of the Nuestra Senora de Atocha
and fine
Sterling Silver. The Nuestra Senora de Atocha (Our
Lady of Atocha) Spanish Galleon shipwrecked on September 5, 1622, when
it struck a reef during a hurricane and sank in the Florida keys, taking
with her 264 souls. The Galleon contained 47 troy tons of treasure,
which were scattered over 50 miles of the ocean floor. Only 5 people
survived the wreck. The treasure remained buried at sea until 1980
when salvager Mel Fisher found the mother lode.
A
formulated blend of Sterling
Silver and Atocha Silver is used in order to give the coin an antiqued
"older" appearance. This makes the details of the
coin more pronounced. This coin contains Atocha Silver that
is over 370 years old.
