£100 Million in gold coins found off coast of Georgia

Treasure hunters believe they've found the largest treasure haul ever with the discovery of The Republic, a ship which set sail from New York to New Orleans in 1865 with 200,000 gold coins on board. Each would have been worth $20 at the time, but between $6-9,000 today. News report The find is the result of a 10 year long investigation, resulting in the appearance of a rudder, paddle wheel and numerous glass bottles lying one third of a mile down on the Atlantic's ocean floor.
