This is my Goonies, One Eye Willy pirate ship treasure! NGC shipwreck certification for a 1700-1725 Spanish 8REALES. Salvaged from a sunken ship called the AKERENDAM that sunk in 1725. From research I believe the silver to be just above 93% pure because of the age seen in the photos however I cannot guarantee anything more than what the shipwreck certificate ncg states per for the graded slab of this Coin. Salvaged from the "Akerendam" (sunk in 1725 off Runde Island, Norway). On January 19th, 1725, the VOC ship Akerendam headed to Batavia with 19 chests of gold and silver coins when it got hit by a snow storm and sunk off the Norwegian coast. Five of the chests were recovered, but the wreck was only further salvaged upon its rediscover in the 1970's. Of over 50,000 of the retrieved coins, the main type found within the 6,600 gold specimens was the 1724 Utrecht Ducat - a once extremely rare type. Also known as the "Runde Treasure", it's the largest coin treasure ever found in Norway
