Available for the First Time Ever - The Lost Treasure of da Gama!
Lost in 1622, rare treasure coins from the São José shipwreck are finally available to collectors world-wide. Excavated off the coast of Mozambique by Arqueonautas Worldwide, fewer than 7200 of these collectible quality coins will be distributed.
Sailing in haste from Lisbon, the São José was the Almiranta of a fleet on a King's mission. It was transporting royal treasure to Goa, the capital of Portugal's overseas empire. Traveling with the fleet was Francisco da Gama, the great grandson of legendary Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama, en route to Goa, India, to reign as Viceroy. Attacked at sea by English and Dutch ships, they battled heroically for several days, but in the end, the São José and da Gama's royal treasure were lost off the Mozambique coast.
383 years later, Arqueonautus Worldwide located the São José and recovered a trove of rare treasure coins.
Fewer Than 7,200 Coins Available Worldwide
