Arcticsparky Valued Member United States 380 Posts	Posted 07/24/2013 11:09 pm Before I got older and beat down by life, that's the kind of thing I dreamed of. I remember reading Snow White and the seven dwarves, and promptly going out back with a shovel to dig for jewels. This reminds me to keep some childlike hope for treasures. I do buy allot of shipwreck treasure. Report this Post to the Staff
austrokiwi Pillar of the Community 2087 Posts	Posted 07/25/2013 01:12 am Most of it will be melted down. The reason being the silver from India was poorly refined at the time the bars were shipped. As a result "there's gold in them bars". That company will make a considerable profit from re-refining those bars. Odyssey Marine knows about the gold..when there first made the discovery in 2011 the gold content(0.04%) was reported. Edited by austrokiwi 07/25/2013 01:17 am Report this Post to the Staff
