INDIAN RIVER COUNTY — The treasure hunt is back on for the crew salvaging for the 1715 Fleet-Queen Jewels.

Divers from the M/V Capitana recovered two silver 8 Reales coins June 17, with new Capitana crew member Grant Gitschlag making his first-ever silver coin find.

Along with the silver coins, 110 musket balls and pistol shot also were recovered, along with shards from an olive jar and other pottery.

The coins are part of the lost treasure from the 1715 Fleet shipwrecks. Eleven galleons laden with treasures from the New World were bound for Spain but were lost during a hurricane off the coast of Florida on July 31, 1715. Most of the treasure still lies beneath the ocean.

According to the 1715 Fleet-Queens Jewels’ Facebook page, recovering small items in very shallow water along the coast requires time, effort and patience. The Capitana is under the command of Capt. Jonah Martinez, who is working within a debris field known as Corrigan’s wreck, just off the coast of Wabasso Beach south to Indian River Shores.

Martinez, of Port St. Lucie, said the crew only has been able to search five or six times so far this season because of the weather. They are searching in the same general area where, last July, two gold rings were found. In August, 2015, Martinez and his crew discovered 350 gold coins worth $4.5 million just off the coast of Wabasso Beach.

“We haven’t been able to get back into that exact area so far,” Martinez said. “We just need to get a good stretch of weather again this year.”

The 1715 Fleet-Queens Jewels LLC, a historic shipwreck salvage operation, owns the exclusive rights to the remains of the 1715 Treasure Fleet. The company acquired the salvage rights from legendary treasure hunter Mel Fisher.
