  On 15 July 1733, the New Spain Spanish Plate Flota, consisting of 21 ships, was caught in a severe hurricane while enroute to Spain within the narrow confines of the Straits of Florida. By morning (16th) all except one had grounded on the reefs of the Florida Keys, from Key Largo to Vaca Key. Salvage efforts started immediately and by year's end some 11 1/2 of the 13 million in Gold and Silver Pesos aboard the ill-fated ships had been recovered.
  The Capitana El Rubi, Flagship of Lieutenant General Don Rodrigo de Torres y Morales, carried some 6 million in precious metals. Though this great ship has been sunk for 250 years it still yields treasure for the patient diver. Modern technology and studious research by hard-working, intrepid treasure hunters has resulted in the recovery of many items like the ring shown in replica above.
