BOLIVIA — PHILIP III Atocha 1622 Shipwreck • 4 Reales • 12.5 grams Mel Fisher COA + Original 1985 TSI Flip Coin No. 85A-147175

A classic treasure-ship survivor with all the pedigree collectors crave. Struck in the name of Philip III at the mint of Potosí, this 4 Reales—lean, compact at 12.5 grams, and forged nearly half a millennium ago—was aboard the legendary Nuestra Señora de Atocha, flagship of the 1622 Tierra Firme Fleet. When the hurricane shattered the galleons and rewrote maritime history, coins like this were sealed in darkness on the seabed for more than 360 years, preserved for a new age of discovery.

This specimen, TSI #85A-147175, comes with the full prestige of its lineage: • Mel Fisher COA — the gold-standard provenance from the treasure hunter who found the world’s most famous shipwreck. • Original 1985 Fisher-era flip — an artifact in its own right from the very season these treasures first resurfaced. • Grade two (looks Grade 1) preservation — showing strong detail for the issue, unmistakable Potosí fabric, and the rugged, sea-sculpted texture that only a 1622 survivor can wear.

A piece like this is more than colonial silver — it is Atocha history you can hold, a shipwreck icon with both early documentation and undeniable presence. Highly desirable, increasingly scarce, and the perfect addition to any serious treasure collection.X#12cbbfxxdh
