🥇 BANNER Hurricane irma uncovers 1733 treasure fleet coin, on Friday the 13th !!

[Blak bart]

Woooo hoooo !! I got one !! A big old fat, chunky, full size, dated piece of eight cob !! Took 5 hunts after the hurricane to get a cob. Only been out of the sand for an hour. Beautiful low tide hunt at the hurricane hole, wasn't there 45 minutes before I got the cob. Found another strap keeper from the wreck too. What a great morning.

Im almost certain this coin will clean up incredibly well as it is a full size piece with a bold strike. Pretty sure its dated 1732, and was pulled from high ground by the hurricane. I found it in ankle deep water at mid tide. Woo hooo !! Got to clean the old girl up. Friday the 13 th was pretty darn lucky for me so far. Nice odd shaped piece. Looks like it came from the middle of the bar !!

A find like that just gets the imagination running wild. That is one of my favorite finds posted in a long time. Congrats on a banner find. I'm curious what it weighs - do you have a gram scale?

Marvelous darling! I almost always dig the high sand. Ocean does weird stuff with relics left in it.
