That is a lot of silver. However, compared to the total silver supply it is relatively small. Therefore, long term, I don't see it having a significant effect on the silver market.

Eh. it'll cause a small dip when it goes up for sale, but yea. I don't see it being any large movement.

It will be bought probably more as a historical or "sunken treasure" peice, than as market grade bullion.

Pretty cool. Wouldn't that be fun to be aboard the salvage vessel when they pull up the first few loads?

Yes, indeed. Were those coins or bars?

Well over $200,000,000 in bullion value alone I believe. They get to keep 80% too, usually the ''Crown'' takes much more than 20%.

I'll bet the Odyssey Marine investors are happy with this one.
