FIND BERMUDA PALLADIUM SHIPWRECK COINS FOR SALE

Metals such as bronze, copper, silver and gold had long been used to make coins, but in the late 1980s the small country of Bermuda upped the ante with two palladium coins. The collectible coins featured famous shipwrecks on them. The Bermuda palladium shipwreck coins, produced in 1987 and in 1988, represented a relatively unusual occurrence in the numismatic world. The shipwrecks on their reverse sides still appeal to many types of coin collectors, and the pieces were made in small enough numbers that finding them is still a fun hunt.

The Sea Venture Coin

The 1987 Bermuda palladium shipwreck coin featured the British vessel Sea Venture. She was lost in 1609, and became the inspiration for William Shakespeare’s play The Tempest. The Sea Venture palladium coin has a face value of $25. Only 15,800 pieces were minted.

The San Antonio Coin

The 1988 Bermudan palladium proof coin featured the San Antonio, a boat which wrecked in 1621. This coin’s design actually shows the violent moment of capsize, unlike the calmer Sea Venture coin. The San Antonio coin too was valued at $25 on its face. A mere 2,000 were minted.
