Description: The SS Republic sank in a storm off the coast of Georgia in October of 1865. In 2003 more than 51,000 gold and silver coins were recovered from the wreck, including numerous $20.00 Double Eagles, $10.00 Eagles, silver half dollars and even a few silver quarters. In addition to its extraordinary cargo of gold coins, the Republic’s treasure yielded some exceptionally unique silver half dollars and provided an unprecedented opportunity for numismatic research. All of the coins were professionally conserved by Numismatic Conservation Services (NCS) and graded by Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC). Unlike other recently salvaged shipwrecks, a wide variety of dates and mints ranging from the 1840s to 1865 were documented in this remarkable hoard including many of the finest-known examples of United States gold and silver coins from the period and highly collectible today.
