Interesting headline. Did the journalist expect the gold to rust?
After the US Gubmint takes their share, they should have plenty left over for...maybe a case of beer.
It’s never me. I’m never the one who finds a shipwreck, or discovers that the painting in my bathroom is actually a lost Renoir.
:-P
Just my luck. I’ve done metal detecting all over the SC coast and never knew I needed to go 20 miles east.
When you look at the number of people involved in the search for the length of time they are doing this plus the cost of salvage equipment, this is like finding a gold mine. It' not the huge payoff everyone thinks. And that's before governments take a. their share of the salvage and b. the income taxes and c. legal costs to defend your find against claims.

Explorers find 7 shipwrecks off Carolinas, all believed to hold gold coins and jewelry

The same team of sea explorers that found hundreds of gold and
silver coins on North Carolina’s S.S. Pulaski shipwreck says it
has located seven more potentially valuable shipwrecks off the coast
of North and South Carolina.
The company will also continue pulling valuables off Steamship
Pulaski and Steamship North Carolina, both of which are on the
sea floor off the Carolinas.

Foiled again. Everytime I find a great hiding spot and it’s found.
When I was a student at North GA College in Dahlonega, the school had a complete set of Dahlonega mint gold on display in the administration building. It was in a protruding from the wall in a display that let you see front and back of the coins. It probably could have easily been ripped off the wall but in the early 70s, no one worried about that sort of thing.
