Silver Coins From The Atocha
When the "mother-lode" of the Nuestra Senora de Atocha was located on July 20, 1985, divers were astounded to see concreted chests of coins still encased in the wooden boxes in which they were shipped. When cleaned, these coins represented all of the New World mints, with the mint at Potosi being the most predominant.
