Clump of coins caked together from being underwater for almost a thousand
years. These were excavated from a 11th century shipwreck in the South China Sea. Ship
itself is not identifiable but probably sank in the 11th century because the cargo of
coins can be dated and you would expect that the ships coins would have been contemporary.
Most likely a merchant ship that ran into a storm. ca 11 munten, ca 54 gram, 26,14 mm dia, 18,30 mm hoog ebay, US $29,95 Ongeveer EUR 23,47, 19 juli 2010, amunre |
