Additional Details
Only a handful of times in the last 15 years has a major shipwreck been recovered. In 1784 a Spanish ship headed for Louisiana disappeared. Over 200 years later, El Cazador and its sunken treasure were found. The ship was named El Cazador, "The Hunter," a Spanish 'Brig of War' loaded with a vast treasury of freshly-minted silver and bound for the New World. We may never know what mysterious force sank her. But it is certain that her lost treasure holds the key to the birth of the nation we know today.
The treasure finder was Jerry Murphy, 20 hours out from his home port of Pascagoula, Mississippi and captain of the boat, 'Mistake'. One fateful day in August 1993 out in the Gulf of Mexico, Jerry pulled up more than just fish. Jerry had accidentally found a fisherman’s dream - treasure coins! What was really exciting about the find was that every single one of the coins was dated 1783. That means it was a "mint" shipment, and when you’ve got a "mint" shipment you’ve got a major find of historical proportions. Claim a piece of El Cazador’s treasure today! Click here to view more.
