Three years later, he and his crew announced that they had found the remains of a 16th-century vessel. Many believed it to be La Trinité, a French ship involved in a bitter battle with Spain that sank in the stormy waters off the Florida coast in 1565. Its loss, along with three other ships, proved to be a historic moment, allowing the Spanish to gain a vital foothold in North America.

Fisher's specialized equipment proved wildly successful, and he soon discovered over 1,000 gold coins. Then, in 1969, Fisher learned about the Nuestra Senora de Atocha, and he focused all his search efforts on her, motivating his team with the motto: Today's the Day!Little did Fisher know that the search for the Atocha would consume the next 16 and a half years of his life. Battle the Kraken, poke his eyes out and stab the gills and when you hit the right spot the jaw will pop open, coins will fly out and reveal the treasure chest within. Inside the chest is guaranteed real gold.Petro has told officials to set up a public-private partnership or do a deal with a private firm to get the San José to the surface as soon as possible, according to minister of culture Juan David Correa. The ships' navigation must have been superb because they were able to locate the Santa Margarita and to recover about half of her cargo. The remains of the Atocha were resting in 56 feet ( 17 m) of water, and the Spanish never found her. "Today is the day!" First in 1973, and then in 1975, Fisher's eldest son Dirk, who had followed his father into the business, found three silver bars and five bronze cannons from the Atocha. Just a few days after the second discovery, Dirk, his wife, and another diver were sleeping on board a boat when it suffered a bilge pump failure and capsized. Three lives were lost. Fisher and his team were able to bring up 40 tons (36 tonnes)of gold and silver, 114,000 "pieces of eight", gold coins, 1,000 silver ingots, gold and silver artifacts and 71 pounds ( 32 kg) of Colombian emeralds. The salvaged coins bore mint marks ranging from the early 1500s to 1621, and many of these coins had never been seen before. Mel Fisher (left) and divers Source: Mel Fisher's Treasures/YouTube
