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 1985 when salvager Mel Fisher found the mother lode.
This coin has an antiqued "older" appearance. This makes the details of the coin more pronounced. This coin contains Atocha Silver that is over 400 years old.
This coin is a limited edition. It is shipped with a Certificate of Authenticity and Velvet Pouch.
Each Certificate of Authenticity includes the following information:
Bar Number
Unique silver bar used in minting the coin
Manifest Number
Manifest on which the recovered silver bar was recorded
Atocha Seal
An embossed Authentic Atocha Silver Seal

I am so very pleased with this purchase. I am a retired teacher and went with my husband to Key West. There we visited the Mel Fisher Museum and learned his story. To think that I now have a replica of a coin that he found that was made from some of the Atocha silver! The pendant is perfect, just the size stated, and much prettier than the pictures. Thanks, Virtual Treasure Chest, for the care you took in making and packaging my replica coin.

We purchased two coins for our children who graduated from college this year. We went to several jewelry stores to look for appropriate chains. They were all very interested in the coins and asked how we acquired them. They are beautiful and a piece of history.

I received my pendant today and I love it. I was born in Cuba so I was excited about the history. Thank you so much!
