Yes...all of these finds were between the McLarty Museum and Wabasso Beach.

Congratulations! Great job Captain Bill! Rob told me about your find yesterday over lunch. He was heading your way to examine it. Hope some of your luck rubs off on the Conquistador.

Another day, another awesome find for my friends on the little green boat with the big old blower in the back...The Carib Crew scored again for Search and Salvage and Caribbean Treasure Salvors LLC.
This is a great 1715 artifact, IMHO...A really nice, chunky 8 reale coin concreted to a lovely chunk of Treasure Coast rock!
MaryEllen Twichell wrested this beauty from it's watery resting places somewhere on the Cabin Wreck this afternoon.
Great job by the whole crew, from Captain Kym who parked the boat on the right spot, all the way through....You folks are a great team. I appreciate all that you do and we have MUCH more to find this year and in years to come.
Here are some preliminary pictures of The Eight Reale Rock.

Wow!!! If I were them, I'd leave it concreted to the rock, great for any desktop or museum display.

Bill, I have a Twitter account, if you like maybe put some of these pics on there with bits of info injected. Your name could be linked to FB page. But Spain and other countries will be sure to notice, any objections, please let me know first... some night when I'm bored can put them up.

Be my guest and thanks! I feel that everyone ought to get to share in the history.

Rob Westrick and Doug Goethel were here the other day and we went through every coin. The crown of the find is the 1617 8 reale clumped with 3 8 reale cobs, but every coin is well centered and very'pretty' as far as we can see. Rob and Doug both commented that this was a very unusual group of coins, being that there were no coins that were outliers.
We all agree that this group of coins were probably all in one pouch/pocket and that this pouch belonged to someone who probably had an affinity or perhaps a professional interest in coinage. We'll likely never know, but I do enjoy trying to figure who the person was that owned the artfacts that we find..

Ok, all I need to do now, is wait for a good time to launch them on the Twitter machine... it does get results, once had a Fox News commentator following me on there for about 2 weeks.

I've had 2 batches successfully lauched from the Twitter pad now. Will be one final 3rd lauch yet, problem is way too much political stuff on there lately. First batch got all mixed up between a series of White House tweets.

Absolutely amazing

Super-SUPERIOR relics and coins...!

Have been too busy to get the last ones. Sunday early afternoon was the time of the 2nd batch, which can be the busiest day of the week. There was a singer on there the whole afternoon, tweeting back and forth with a fan of hers. Most of my 1715 tweets of the Carib, ended up being caught right between theirs. So, I'd check the feed each time see how things turned out. Singer finally told the fan she could get a job at her record label.

Bill, I see you joined me on Twitter, thanks for retweeting everything... just a heads up, rest of them probably soon.
