Spanish gold coins worth millions found off Florida coast

Spanish gold coins worth millions found off Florida coast

The story begins in the 18th century when 11 Spanish ships were destroyed in a hurricane off the Florida coast. They were sailing from Cuba to Spain. Last month, 300 years to the day since the disaster, a Florida salvage company recovered 350 sunken gold coins. They are worth $4.5 million. 1715 Fleet Queens Jewels co-founder Brent Brisben joins “CBS This Morning” with some of the rare coins.

    Didn’t the Spanish government claim the gold back from a guy who found a much larger shipment.

    They belong to the king of Spain.

    Chris Rivas from San Antonio Texas ,😠😠 that’s what money and greed would do to people and still their own brothers land and their Fortune it’s all about the money who care where they got it from and where did it come from it belongs to Spain not the USA Florida is a very rich state and there are a bunch of greedy pigs always want to take that does not belong to them so rightfully all of the gold Everything belongs back to Spain

    if those coins were made specifically for the King of Spain and were salvaged from a spanish ship then they should pay " the royal fifth " ( spanish tax ) to the current king of spain

  31. john o on August 17, 2022 at 9:38 am

    Just wait till Spain sues this guy to reclaim the gold. They tried with the Atocha.

    not bad reason to legalize,
    every coin has not damaged,
    gold is quite soft metal

  37. truly blessed on August 17, 2022 at 9:45 am

    Those golds are probably from the Philippines. Spain stole a lot of golds in the Philippines
