These remarkable 1808 Admiral Gardner Shipwreck Treasure 10 Cash Coins carry nearly two centuries of history beneath the waves. Struck in Birmingham, England for the East India Company, each piece was intended for circulation in Madras before tragedy intervened. These coins spent almost 200 years at the bottom of the English Channel, preserved in the cold depths.

The Admiral Gardner sank on January 25, 1809, during a fierce storm while transporting thousands of copper coins. The wreck remained lost until 1984, when a fisherman accidentally snagged his nets on the site, revealing the long-forgotten cargo. Salvage operations recovered these historic coins years later, bringing them back into the hands of collectors.

Each coin has since been certified authentic by NGC, the leading authority in shipwreck numismatics. Due to their time underwater, every piece carries unique character, patina, and texture created naturally over two centuries. These variations make each coin a one-of-a-kind artifact of maritime and colonial history.

This listing is for one NGC-certified 10 Cash coin, and the exact shape and size may vary. With its dramatic origin, genuine shipwreck pedigree, and official certification, this piece stands out as both a historic treasure and an excellent conversation piece for any collection.
