Speaking Of Old Ships,

the treasures found in this one are coming up for sale again,


although the name of the vessel is not known it's treasure is, about 250,000 objects, including crystal, ceramics, pearls and gold were discovered by divers in a wreck off the port of Cirebon, Java, in Indonesia, now some of the haul is now going to be sold in Singapore - two years after it failed to be sold at auction in 2010, the treasure is thought to be worth about £50million, the fascinating thing is that some 400 wrecks have been found in the area, but it is thought that some 10,000 more are laying on the seabed just waiting to be discovered, now where did I put my wetsuit?
