Nuestra Senora de Atocha's Treasure

In 1622, the Spanish galleon Nuestra Senora de Atocha was heading back to Spain carrying a precious cargo of gold, silver, and gems that would be valued at around $700 million today. It was caught in a hurricane off the coast of Key West and perished. Most of its cargo has already been found. In 1985, a treasure hunter found $500 million worth of the buried treasure less than 100 miles off the coast of Key West. Experts believe there is still plenty of treasure to be found. According to its captain’s original manifest, there are still about 17 tons of silver bars, 128,000 coins of different values, 27 kilos of emeralds, and 35 boxes of gold to be found.
