Paul Bulgerin Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 05/05/2014 6:03 pm Thanks for the link. I wasn't aware there was more work going on at the site of the Central America's wreck. I've been following this for years. I can't afford any of the coins recovered, but I have been following it with interest. Paul Bulgerin Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16826 Posts	Posted 05/05/2014 6:23 pm The SS Central America was excavated back in the 1990s, with quite a large amount of coins and other loot recovered; buying coins provenanced from the ship is certainly possible. The only news is that Odyssey seems to have been rewarded for thinking there's enough loot still there to make a second expedition worthwhile. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
