When I was a kid back in the '70s, my dad would take us to see Mel Fisher's little museum in Key West. It was before he actually found any big treasure, so he was still looking for investors. If I remember right, you could even go on his boat if it was on the dock.
The Atocha Museum in Key West is awesome. I remember an emerald cross that had to weight 2lbs. Great stuff this issue! Love the 'Frost' motif. Gorgeous.
Frosty Fabergé and an emerald from the Atocha

I had a kinda crazy week and was saving reading this till I could savor it. It did not disappoint. You never do.
Because I can't help myself, if anyone wants to know more about dinosaur auctions, The Dinosaur Artist is a fabulous book.
That emerald! That Mauna necklace! So superb.
Do I WANT a T-Rex skull? Absolutely. But does it actually belong in a museum or at least somewhere it is available to researchers? Yes.
What would I even do with a T-Rex skull? Well, I can tell you I’d be a hell of a lot closer to my fantasy of living on my animal crossing island.
Love everything in this one, especially the Cartier ensemble Faberge! And in another life, I would LOVE to be a treasure hunter!!!!
