Loaded down, mostly with newly-minted Silver 8 Reales Coins from Mexico City, it never reached its destination and New Orleans eventually came under France's Control.In 1993, near the mouth of The Mississippi River, a fishing trawler, Known as "The Mistake", began pulling up numerous Silver Coins in its nets. By the time licensed Salvage Crews finished, over 400,000 Mexican 8 Reales were brought up, along with another 50,000 smaller denominations.ALSO OF HISTORIC IMPORTANCE....Even decades after the newly-formed United States of America purchased the Louisiana Territory from the French, coins like this were presented and accepted as U.S. DOLLARS until the late 1850's.THIS IS A GREAT HISTORIC KEEPSAKE!It should be a nice pickup for a passionate enthusiast of Colonial Shipwreck Coinage.BUY IT NOW!WHILE THE PRICE IS STILL REASONABLE!The popularity and the value of these EL CAZADOR NUMISMATIC CLASSICS is growing quickly and substantially....PRESENTLY, AN INVESTMENT "NO-BRAINER" Good Luck!
