“A Florida family of self-described treasure hunters brought home the proverbial big score on Monday after recovering gold and jewelry estimated to be worth about $300,000, the Orlando Tribune reported.  The collected haul — five gold coins, a gold ring and 64 feet of gold chain — has been traced back to a Spanish fleet of ships that was almost completely destroyed off of the Florida coast in July 1715 by a freak hurricane. The storm is blamed for the deaths of 1,000 people, and the region, located off the coast of Fort Pierce, is known as the Treasure Coast.”
