Hi All,
Any ideas whether this is real or fake? Now, as it was found around an estuary north of Jacksonville, I have my suspicions. However, it may be a Mel Fisher that was tossed for who knows what reason. View attachment 1909021 View attachment 1909023
www.atocha.comGot This Coin from Ebay 10 yrs ago. The coin and COA were framed together, I paid about $295 for it...
I would like to know your opinions Real Or Fake?. Thanks
Does this look real or fake? Thanks in advance...It's in an auction and they say it's real. I'm wondering because the setting and coin are both of gold/silver shades. It seems like one would be different than the other one.

Xrdax, yours is genuine. It has rather severe salt water damage. That is typical of coins that have been the ocean a long time.
