Probably some kind of distinguishing feature of naval architecture. Any wreck from that era would be totally encrusted or deteriorated to the point where ID would be difficult. Still it has been done with many treasure galleons.

Yep... Probably nothing but a ballast heap. But, a coin or two would identify her - It isn't like there were many ships on this side of the pond back in her day...
