Just made my annual treck to the Fisher museum..ALMOST saw the cannon in the lab through the window. You guys were out hunting I guess, so I had a beer at Hirams. Took my daughter with us, as she'd never been to the museum. Y'know, she's watched me and listened to me for years, but had never really experienced anything related to the 1715 fleet directly. She realized she was really at the epicenter of treasure hunting on the east coast, and was pretty impressed. Drove across to Sebastian Inlet, then down the coast to Ft. Pierce..showed her all the 1715 locations.

Everyone should go to the Fisher museum in Sebastian. It's VERY unpretentious, but it's the real deal.

Best of luck in your endeavors!

I've never seen a full flan 1698 Cuzco 2 E before. That's a pretty special coin that could be used as the plate coin for the variety.

Oh, not much different from what I found on the beach...but my overhead was much less...a bottle of water, a snack, enough gas to get to the beach and back...plus I was amused at all the people walking the beach, looking for treasure, walking right over the top of the stuff !

However, I did not find a 1600's gold coin ! That is spectacular !

How much do those divers cost per day ?

Well, Its getting close to that time of year! We started getting the boat cleaned up, fixed up and soon we'll be back at it!

I believe we will do even better this year!!!

Avoid the rush, Invest in the GoldHound early!!!
