Article mentions coins dating to 1535 and a quartette (spelling a nod to QDB-era B&M lot descriptions) of coins valued at $1 million. Could contain actual First Strike™ stuff from Mexico City mint. Video shows some of the coins.

    Interesting, but I'll reserve comment until I see something from a reputable news service.
