Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 1502 Rare Antique Gold Coin

Ye Tian looked at the big gold coin in Raymond's hand, and then pretended to be surprised and said:

"This is a Spanish Doblon gold coin, which is worth eight escudo gold coins, and the number of such large gold coins is very small, and even fewer have been handed down to this day!

If I'm not mistaken, this rare Doblon gold coin should be minted by the Spanish Mint in Panama City, around 1580.

Raymond, look at the obverse right side of this Doblon gold coin, is there a capital 'AP'? That is the factory logo of the Panama Mint, which specifically means "upper Peru"

Hearing this, Raymond immediately began to check the Doblon gold coins in his hand.

After a few seconds, the guy nodded excitedly and said:

"Your eyesight is amazing, Steven, that's right, there is indeed the word 'AP' in capital letters on this Doblon gold coin, right where you said it is!

It seems that this is indeed a Doblon gold coin minted in Panama City. The value of this gold coin must be very high, right? It must be an antique gold coin of great value! "

Ye Tian nodded slightly, then smiled and said:

"You are right, Raymond, this is indeed a valuable antique gold coin, and it is one of the most expensive Spanish antique gold coins, with a current market value of no less than two hundred thousand dollars.

The reason why this Doblon gold coin is so expensive is because of the Panama Mint, which historically existed for a very short period of time. It only minted coins for three years and then stopped operating!

Moreover, the coins minted by the Panama Mint are mainly silver coins of the coat of arms series, and there are very few gold coins minted, let alone the huge Doblon gold coins, which are completely rare!

Compared with the gold and silver coins minted by several other Spanish and Latin American colonial mints, the gold and silver coins of the Panama Mint are much higher in rarity and market price, and it is difficult to see them in the market!

Of course, if a large number of gold and silver coins minted by the Panamanian Mint flooded into the market at the same time, it would definitely lower the market value of these antique coins, and it would depend on how the owner operated at this time.

If the owner of this kind of gold and silver coins is more sensible, bulk goods little by little, lengthen the timeline of bulk goods, and let the market slowly digest these rare and antique coins, it will not be difficult to maximize the benefits! "

"Wow! A Doblon gold coin from the Panama Mint is worth more than two hundred thousand dollars,

This is really too exaggerated, there are quite a few Dobloom gold coins here, which is undoubtedly a very amazing wealth! "

Raymond said with emotion, his excited eyes lit up.

"Not only the Doblon gold coins from the Panama Mint, but almost every gold coin here, regardless of Doblon, Escudo, or Rial, is a valuable antique coin.

The market value of these antique gold coins far exceeds the value of the gold used to cast them. Of course, this requires us to operate carefully and strive to maximize the benefits.

Well, let's not talk about this, let's continue to work, and when the exploration is over, we will transport all these antique gold coins back to the Intrepid, and have some time to appreciate them slowly! "

After speaking, Ye Tian threw the rial gold coins back into the box.

Matisse and Raymond followed suit and threw their gold coins back into the box, somewhat reluctantly!

Next, Ye Tian asked Matisse and the others to cover the two boxes again, and locked the boxes with safety locks for the next salvage operation.

After doing this, the three of them came to the corner between the inner bulkhead and the floor of the captain's cabin, ready to deal with the pile of coral-covered things.

When underwater robots used metal detectors to explore this place before, they detected strong metal signals under the coral. Needless to say, this corner must be full of gold and silver treasures!

It was still Matisse and Raymond who used diving knives to peel off the large pieces of coral covering the gold and silver treasures little by little, while Ye Tian was floating and watching.

Without much effort, the corals of various colors that had grown for hundreds of years and took shape with great difficulty were peeled off by Matisse and the others with their sharp diving knives and scattered to the side.

Following the actions of Mathis and the others, the sea water in the captain's cabin became a bit muddy, but the dazzling golden light could not be concealed at all!

As expected, under the piece of coral is a pile of bright and charming gold coins, and a small amount of silver coins, all from the Spanish and Latin American colonies!

Just like the two boxes of antique gold coins before, these gold and silver coins are of different sizes, in various denominations, and in different minting years, from the sixteenth century to the middle of the seventeenth century, throughout various periods!

And their origins are also different, covering almost all Spanish mints in Latin America, some from Mexico City, some from Santo Domingo, some from Lima and so on!

These gold and silver coins are also valuable antique coins, which have certain collection value, and many of them are extremely rare antique coins.

In this pile of gold and silver coins, Ye Tian even saw the shadow of the 16th-century Spanish royal figure-eight escudo, which is one of the most expensive antique gold coins, one worth hundreds of thousands of dollars!

The moment the pile of gold and silver coins was discovered, there was another round of cheers in the captain's room, of course from Matisse and Raymond.

Immediately afterwards, the guys in the two submarines outside also cheered excitedly.

After a brief celebration, Ye Tian and the others got busy again.

The three of them worked together, and quickly cleaned up the pile of gold and silver coins thoroughly, and found many scattered gold and silver coins.

After completing these tasks, they came to the cabin door leading to the treasure room, ready to enter the airtight treasure room next door.

After coming to the cabin door and stabilizing his figure one after another, Ye Tian immediately stretched out his right hand and tried to push the hatch door to see if he could push it open. Of course it would be great!

But unfortunately, the cabin door did not move at all, showing no sign of opening.

Seeing this situation, Ye Tian did not increase his strength to continue pushing, but withdrew his right hand.

"Obviously, this cabin door was blocked by something from the inside, and it was blocked very firmly. The thing blocking the door is probably a box full of gold and silver treasures, which is why it is so heavy!

For safety's sake, it's best not to force open the hatch. Once the boxes blocking the hatch roll over, it may trigger a chain reaction, which is not a good thing!

It’s better to demolish it. It’s safer to demolish it at a higher position. When cutting, you have to be careful not to damage the boxes that may exist behind the bulkhead! "

While saying these words, Ye Tian quickly selected the most ideal location for the demolition. Of course, it was the result of his secret perspective, and it was foolproof!

After designating the demolition area, he retreated a few meters back, giving up his position to Matisse and Raymond who were holding underwater electric cutters.

When Mathis and the others began to cut the bulkhead, Ye Tian swam out of the captain's cabin with his legs lightly, and came to the side of the five-seater submarine driven by Miller.

He retrieved several Ziploc bags from the salvage gear carried by the mini-sub before returning to the captain's quarters.

After returning, he swam straight to the pile of gold and silver treasures at the corner between the bulkhead and the floor, and then landed on the overturned bulkhead to stabilize his figure.

Immediately afterwards, he took out a sealed bag and opened it, then held the mouth of the sealed bag with his left hand, and scraped gold and silver coins into it with his right hand. The action was very bold and majestic, just like filling rice in his own granary!

He had just finished filling one bag, sealed the mouth of the bag, and was about to pack the second bag when Mathis' excited voice suddenly came from the earphones.

"Steven, we have already breached the bulkhead. This secret cabin is indeed a treasure room. Looking in through the breached hole, you can see seven or eight boxes, the same size as the two boxes just now!

Don't even think about it, these boxes must be full of gold and silver treasures, and maybe a lot of jewelry and diamonds. In addition to these boxes, there are also many things on the floor of the treasure room, faintly shining with light! "

Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately stopped what he was doing, and turned his head to look over.

as expected!

With such skill, Matisse and Raymond have already cut a large hole of 1.23 meters in length and width in the bulkhead, which is enough for everyone to freely enter and exit the treasure room!

As for what kind of treasure is hidden in that treasure room and how much it is worth, Ye Tian already knows it well, he couldn't be more clear about it!

He glanced at the situation over there, then smiled and said:

"Matisse, Raymond, don't worry about the situation in the treasure room for now, let's enter it later to hunt for treasures, there is plenty of time, those gold and silver treasures won't grow wings to fly!

Come here first, let's clean up the gold and silver treasures scattered in the captain's cabin, and put them all in sealed bags, so as not to get in the way for a while, and it will be easier to salvage later! "

"Okay, Steven"

Matisse nodded in response, and then swam towards this side with Raymond.

After coming here and stabilizing their bodies one after another, the two guys each took a sealed bag, followed suit, and started digging those dazzling gold and silver coins into the sealed bag!

In just a few minutes, the pile of gold and silver coins that had been sleeping in this corner for hundreds of years has been put into a sealed bag, and will surface in a short time to see the sun again!
