Lost for more than a century, the British ship RMS Douro and its cargo of gleaming gold sovereigns was finally discovered in 1995 off the coast of Spain. Sold at London’s famous Spinks auction house, the coins fetched nearly $3 million. We’ve secured a small allotment of these treasure coins and each features a portrait of a young Queen Victoria—a type last struck in 1875. Each was graded in AU-53 condition as well as authenticated and certified by Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) as DOURO Treasure. Get your share of the booty!
