Subject: Re: Impact of Hurricane 2004 hurricane season
Yesterday I heard on the local news radio station here in
Philadelphia that a man in Florida found 180 Spanish silver coins
that had washed ashore during Hurricane Jeanne. Of course, the
radio blurb had to place a dollar value on the find ($40,000+).
The link to the blurb is:
