These four coins were found Oceanside of Walker's Key in the middle Florida Keys from one of the 1733 Spanish vessel that went down in a hurricane. The coins were in about 12 feet of water in coarse sand and as you can see in 255 years they took a beating.
This Barber Quarter is in pretty poor condition, but it is the only 1800's coin I have found, again it was found down in the Keys, but I don't remember exactly where, but it was not in the saltwater.
This coin also came from the old high school the date is worn off but it is a bare breasted liberty which was only produced between 1917 to 1919 from my understanding. Please correct me if I am wrong.
