| Shield
type cob, recovered from the Lucayan Beach
wreck, named after Lucayan Beach Grand Bahama Island, where the
wreck was discovered in 1964. Popular belief ties
this wreck to the Dutch hero Piet Heyn who captured the entire
1628 Spanish fleet at Matanzas Bay, Cuba. Two of his
ships were lost near Grand Bahama Island during their return
voyage home; it seems likely that the Lucayan Beach wreck is one
of Heyn's lost ships. Nice, deeply struck full cross with all lions and
castles visible. Nearly full shield with partial mint mark oM at left
and of the design of assayer D, circa 1618-1628. This
beautiful coin was salvaged in the early 1960's and sold at
auction a few years later by Spink & Sons, LTD of London.
It comes with the original Spink auction white clamshell box
(with rust stains on the inside silk cloth) and original small
Spink & Sons certificate of authenticity in addition to a large New World Treasures photo certificate of authenticity. |

Pillar
type 8 reales, recovered by Rex
Cowen, the expedition leader and Jack Gayton, the diving team
leader, from the wreck of the
Dutch East Indiaman Hollandia, which
sank off the Isles of Scilly in July 1743, on her maiden voyage
from Amsterdam to Batavia. All on board perished. This
coin is a valuable grade 1, Mexico mint, Philip V, pillar dollar
with a clear 1740 date that appears to
have been in almost uncirculated condition before suffering the
effects of salt water corrosion from years of being lost at sea.
It was hand selected from a large lot
of exceptionally nice specimens from this wreck. Supplied
with a New World Treasures photo certificate of authenticity. |
