    Thanks, KentuckyJ, I was aware.

    We now have the Britannia, 2 types of 10 oz bars and the 1 oz round...how much silver was recovered?! image

    I've seen the UK 50 pence coins with a limited 20k minting, but the bullion rounds from JM are new and they also carry the previously issued version 2 - 10 oz bars. The rounds and coins are to pricey for my taste. I'm waiting for the version 3 bars to hit the market. image

    I'm holding out for a piece of silver shaped like the actual ship image Maybe that will be the 5th or 6th issue from this hoard.

    I read somewhere that 48 tons of silver were recovered by 2012, Odyssey says the Gairsoppa held up to 240 tons of silver

    << <i>I read somewhere that 48 tons of silver were recovered by 2012, Odyssey says the Gairsoppa held up to 240 tons of silver >>



    Lets see 48 metric tons= 1,543,235 troy oz
    48 short tons (US)=1,400,000 troy oz

    There is wiggle room for more bars, rounds and coinsimage
