1. Post a front and back image of your coin with a specific question about what you’re seeing or asking about and one coin per topic.

2. Please remove coin from the holder unless it’s US or an official mint case or unless it is graded by a grading service.

3. Images should be taken by a camera or cell phone camera, we ask that members don’t use images through a microscope screen.

Fascinating. I had never heard of Atocha before this.
I also didn't expect to be reading a coin forum and end up reading a supreme court case that hinged on the 11th amendment Florida v. Treasure Salvors, 458 U.S. 670 !
