Found 10" down on OBX beach 2 years ago. Might be nothing.Might be old copper sheathing from a 18 century wooden ships hull.
to identify it as from the 1750 period.Jim Sinclair brought the wood up and did the ident on it and determined that the wood was from the new england area of america and was transported to europe to be used in building the snow as over in europe back then they had used up all their forests building ships and had to get wood from here.The El Salvador ballast is at least 50 feet down in the sand.I guess NC banned prop wash to excavate wrecks up there this was after we blew giant holes.We had to blow our way in to the site and blow our way out.November is the only month out of the year that site can be worked.
