Short films on the HMS Invincible by Mike Pitts, Mike has some great footage of wrecks, pity the mainstream TV channels wouldn't take interest and commission a feature length documentary or complete series of work by Mike on wrecks these short clips show his genius please follow the link below to Invincible Flims.

Mike was a commercial diver who made it into the world of underwater filming. He started on the HMS Admiral Gardner sunk 1797, as a salvage diver, the wrecks researcher had taken the Admiral gardener to have gold and silver coins onboarded due to Contemporary reports, instead they found cooper coins, the copper coins were minted in England, for the British East India Company (EIC), in 1808. They are some of the first coins in the world to be minted by steam power. Mike was kind enough to give me a couple of his own, so I've a bit more history recovered from the Goodwin sands.
