More model informationA portion of a gold disc recovered from the wreck of the 1622 galleon Santa Margarita. The original, larger disc was partially cut with a chisel and then broken into segments at these scores. This piece was intended to be two chunks but they were not broken apart. This piece is marked with the Roman numeral XXIIII••• meaning the gold is 23 3/4 karats, or nearly pure. Dimensions: 6.7 cm L x 6.2 cm W x 1.6 cm H x 503.7 grams.
