We all have heard about stories of great treasures and silver lost at sea due to shipwrecks.

From many collapsed ships, silver has been recovered.

The stories behind shipwrecks are interesting and the history surrounding the silver is fascinating.

One such ship is the Spanish ship El Cazador that was lost at sea in 1784.

It was discovered on the floor of the Gulf of Mexico in 1993 by a group of fishermen.
