This pendant is a hand-cast silver coin in a 14K gold overlay wrap held by four prongs. The coin is cast from a formulated blend of silver ingots recovered from the Nuestra Senora de Atocha and fine Sterling Silver. The silver is more pure than sterling silver.
The Nuestra Senora de Atocha was a Spanish galleon that sank on September 5, 1622, when it struck a reef during a hurricane in the Florida Keys. Salvager Mel Fisher found the treasure in 1985. The silver in this coin is over 370 years old.
The coin is a limited edition. It comes in the original Mel Fisher packaging with a Certificate of Authenticity and a jewelry gift box.
