The first is the sunken treasure of the San Jose.
/kloc-in the 0/7th century, Spain plundered a lot of gold and jewels in the South American colonies. At that time, in order to alleviate the financial problems, the Spanish government ordered the South American colonial government to transport gold to Spain. At that time, Spain set up a 17 combined transport fleet to transport a large number of gold and jewels back to Spain from South America. Because most of these ships are loaded with gold, they are also called the golden fleet. In A.D. 1708, a Spanish sailboat "San Jose" loaded with gold and jewels set sail from Panama for Spain. The ship was loaded with gold bars, silver bars, gold coins, cast gold lampstands, etc. Gold mine from Peru, pearls, emeralds, amethysts and diamonds from the Andes from Panama. It was the "San Jose" that carried huge wealth, which led to the dissatisfaction of Britain, which was hostile to Spain for maritime hegemony, and they were eyeing it. So British Commodore Charles Waggerl led a small fleet of four warships and ambushed the golden fleet of the San Jose on the way. In the end, more than 600 soldiers on board were buried in the sea with more than $2 billion worth of treasure. I haven't found it yet.
The second thing is the sunken treasure of the "Mrs. Atoka".
Ever since Columbus' first expedition in 1492, Spain has been plundering the wealth of the colonies in the most barbaric way and acquiring valuable resources and specialties of the New World. In August of A.D. 1622, Mrs. Atoka's fleet returned to Spain from South America full of treasures. For safety reasons, the most precious and valuable treasures are placed on the frigate Lady Atoka. Unfortunately, Mrs. Atoka's cannon had little deterrent effect on the hurricane. When the fleet sailed to the sea between Havana and Cuba, a hurricane struck. The sudden hurricane swept through the fleet, and Mrs. Atoka, who was originally a strong backing, became the first target because of her heavy load and the slowest sailing speed. The ship soon sank to the bottom of 17 meters. Sailors on other ships immediately jumped into the water, hoping to save some treasures, but just as they found the wreckage and prepared to salvage gold bars, another powerful hurricane struck, killing all the people underwater. Later, a treasure hunter named Mel Fisher made unremitting efforts and finally found it at the bottom of the sea. There are 40 tons of treasure on this sunken ship, which is called the largest treasure on the seabed, including nearly 8 tons of gold and 500 kilograms of precious stones. All the treasures are worth about $400 million.
The third is Nanhai No.1 Shenbao.
Nanhai No.1, a merchant ship of the Song Dynasty, sank in the waters near Yangjiang, Guangdong. Its hull is 24.58 meters long and 9.8 meters wide. It is an ocean-going merchant ship of the Song Dynasty, which was discovered earlier, with larger hull and better preservation in the world. This ship is now 20 meters underwater in Yangjiang, covered by two meters thick silt, and has been sleeping on the seabed for nearly 1000 years. Surprisingly, the hull of this ancient ship, which sank for nearly a thousand years, is quite well preserved. It was discovered by accident in A.D. 1987, and was finally salvaged in 2007. From the first discovery to the final salvage, Nanhai No.1 surfaced for 30 years. Nanhai No.1 is described as "covered in golden armor", and experts estimate that the value of ancient ship cultural relics exceeds 1000 billion US dollars. There are 7000 pieces of copper coins1on board, including gold bracelets, bands, rings 15 1 set and silverware 124 sets. Most of them are porcelain, and more than 3000 pieces have been excavated/kloc-0. There are more than 30 kinds of fine ceramics collected from Dehua kiln, Cizao kiln, Jingdezhen kiln and Longquan kiln, most of which can be listed as national first-and second-class cultural relics.
The fourth is the sunken treasure of the Japanese "Apomaru".
Apomaru is a Japanese ocean-going tanker, which was built in the 1940s. On March 28th, A.D. 1945, Apomaru loaded a large number of Japanese troops retreating from Southeast Asia in Singapore and sailed for Japan. As a result, when the ship was sailing to the east of Niushan Island in Pingtan, Fujian, China, it was discovered by the American submarine "Queen Fish" cruising in the sea area. It sank after being attacked by several torpedoes, and 2008 people on board were buried in the sea. It is said that there are a lot of treasures on board that sank to the bottom of the sea with Apomaru. According to Japanese official disclosure, the ship carried 40 tons of gold, 12 tons of platinum, about 40 boxes of jewelry and cultural relics, a lot of rubber and rice, and so on. There are even rumors that there is a precious cultural relic "Peking man's skull" from China on the Apomaru. Up to now, a series of mysteries of "Apo Pill" have not been uncovered, and the treasure sunk at the bottom of the sea is still an unsolved mystery.
These are the four shipwrecks full of treasures in human history. Two of them have been found, and their whereabouts are unknown, so far they have not been found.
