Documented folklore from the Club 49 map, told straight and sourced.
Eleven Spanish ships heavy with gold and silver from the New World went down in a hurricane off this coast in July 1715 and drowned a thousand men. The survivors’ salvage camp gave the beach its name at Sebastian, and three hundred years later the coins still wash up: a family working the wreck line pulled 350 gold coins worth four and a half million dollars out of the surf here in 2015. This is the Treasure Coast, and it means it. Beachcombing the wash after a storm is legal, and real.
The Treasure Coast, Sebastian to Fort Pierce (FL). Source: TRUE: the 1715 fleet is documented and its gold still surfaces. The Club 49 map pins this legend at its documented country, beside the real mines, active claims, land status and modeled honey holes of the same ground. Open the free map and go stand in the story.
