Treasure hunter finds gold coins 'stacked up like poker chips' on 18th century pirate

Undersea explorers have discovered a trove of buried treasure that may lead to the discovery of more than 400,000 gold coins.

Barry Clifford and his team of archaeologists also found a musket and thousands of lead balls in the 18th century pirate ship they found off the coast of Cape Cod.
Clifford told ABC News the coins were found stacked stacked up 'like poker chips' in clumps known as concretions.
