a special coin I received last night

My parents went to Flordia and made a special trip to pick up a coin for me. They picked up a coin from the Britannia shipwreck that was for sale. 1808 East India Company. I feel so good to now know I own a coin from a shipwreck! I'm so happy!! I only wonder how much they paid for it? They refuse to tell me image

    I think that was the "Admiral Gardner", not the Britannia.
