1715 Treasure Fleet | 2oz Elemetal Ultra High Relief Silver Round
The 2 oz Elemetal 1715 Treasure Fleet Silver Round is the fourth release in the Elemetal Shipwreck Series. This final release honors the Spanish fleet whose loss helped create one of the most famous treasure-hunting stories in the world.
Struck by Elemetal Mint in Ultra High Relief, the obverse features a Spanish Cross design associated with treasure fleet coinage. The weathered finish reflects the look of coins recovered from long-submerged wreck sites.
The shared reverse features the Shipwreck Series insignia with D, 2, OZ, AG, and 999, representing Dallas, 2 Troy Ounces, silver, and .999 fine silver purity.
The 1715 Treasure Fleet was carrying precious metals and other valuables for Spain when a hurricane struck along Florida’s Atlantic coast. Some treasure was salvaged, some was taken by privateers, and the remaining legend helped make it The World’s Most Famous Shipwreck.
