Submission + - $500 Million Dollars in Colonial Coins Found
An anonymous reader writes: In a modern day (and underwater) version of Indiana Jones, the AP is reporting (NYTimes, reg. or bugmenot required...) that Odyssey Marine Exploration has recovered an estimated $500 Million of colonial coins from a 400 year old shipwreck in the atlantic. The exact location of the wreck is still undisclosed. Odyssey is a for-profit, publicly traded company. One wonders how well they treated the ship archeologically in their rush to extract the valuable currency.
