The DePaula Collection: Treasure Coin Jewelry
These hammer-struck Spanish treasure coins are more than just beautiful artifacts; they are tangible links to a bygone era. Each coin tells a unique story of a world forged by exploration and commerce. These rare pieces were meticulously recovered from land and sea by the renowned treasure divers, Carl Fismer and Brad Williamson, ensuring their authenticity and historical value.
To guarantee their provenance, every coin comes with a Certificate of Authenticity, providing details on its origin, including the mint where it was struck and the shipwreck from which it was recovered. These exceptional reales have been paired with unique, handcrafted bezels, created by our master jeweler, Joe DePaula.
DePaula's artistry transforms each coin into a wearable masterpiece. The gold is hand-pulled, wrapped, and set around each coin, ensuring a perfect and unique fit. Some are even accented with precious gemstones, turning a piece of history into a one-of-a-kind work of art.
Acquiring one of these coins is an opportunity to hold a piece of history in your hands—a testament to the incredible journeys and stories of the Spanish colonial era.
