Tales of lost treasure have always wet the adventurous appetite of collectors and thrill seekers alike. The mystery and magic of discovering the long lost has tempted some to trek across the globe in search of their dreams of fortune, and there is no shortage of treasure to be found. An estimated 3,000 treasure-laden ships lie at the bottom of the world's oceans, according to Vox News. These ships hold rare coins, treasures, and artifacts from around the world, some that have eluded recovery for thousands of years. In the spring of 2007, however, one exploration ship’s crew found the discovery of a lifetime. The Odyssey Marine Exploration, the world leader in deep-ocean shipwreck exploration, found their treasure dreams come to life in the form of 17 tons of silver coins. The 500 million dollar treasure was discovered 3,600 feet below the surface of the Atlantic waters. The crew used sonar equipment and a sophisticated remote-controlled robot to excavate the 500,000 silver coins and other various artifacts from the ocean floor. It was the kind of find that sent archeologists and coin collectors into crazed frenzies. The intrinsic value may have been estimated at a half billion dollars, but the history behind the coins makes them priceless. The discovery of the alleged 19th century Spanish galleon sunken by the British Royal Navy isn’t the first time the Odyssey Marine exploration team had recovered rare coins from the past. Their first major find came in 2003 in the form of a Civil War-era steamer off the coast of Georgia. The find yielded 51,000 gold coins and other valuable artifacts, totaling around 70 million dollars. The expedition has also discovered the HMS Victory, a legendary British Man-of-War that sank nearly 300 years ago. The Odyssey claims it is still looking for the 4 tons of gold coins rumored to have been aboard when the vessel sank. Treasure finds like these intrigue collectors and archeologists with their historical and intrinsic values.
