The eastern United States contains many tales of lost Hispanic treasure during the Spanish period and subsequent wars of independence between Spain and its American colonies. Many Spanish treasure ships were sunk by hurricanes, storms, and human error along the coast of the eastern United States in Texas, Louisiana, Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, and other states. Fabulous recoveries of lost Spanish gold, silver, and jewels continue to be made along the Florida reefs. Millions of dollars worth of this sunken treasure has been recovered since the 1950s. Lost Spanish mine stories are prevalent in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, and other states.
