1715 Plate Fleet Treasure Coins Each coin listed here is from the 1715 Fleet Spanish Treasure Flotilla which was lost in a terrible hurricane of July 31, 1715 off the coast of Florida. Much of the bullion from the New World was sent to Spain in the form of coinage referred to as "Cobs". Pieces of gold or silver of approximate size of the intended denomination were chopped from the ends of flat bars of refined bullion. They were trimmed to the requisite weight, heated and hammered between crudely engraved dies. The rough surface and irregular circumference of the blanks prevented well defined strikes. Consequently the legends are frequently missing or only partially visible. The Spanish authorities were unconcerned with the shape of the coins, or the visibility of the date. The important features of the coin were mint and assayer's mark, as they guaranteed the fineness of the metal and proper weight. The penalty for not showing these marks was severe. Silver coins are called "Reales". During this period the coins were struck in denominations of 8, 4, 2, 1, and 1/2 Reales. |

Kenny,
I just wanted to say thank you for the great job that you did on
my coin. It is absolutely perfect! I still can't believe that it made it
here the next day. Also, thanks for the treasure hunting tips, ...after
our discussion on the phone, my fiance & I bought a Fisher ("white one")
...it works great! I'll let you know if we find anything worth bragging
about. =)
Thanks again,
Julie
