A family found treasure worth over $1Million was found under the sea!

The treasure discovery -- caught on video -- was found the Schmitt family, in 15-foot deep water off the coast of Ft. Pierce, Florida, according to Brisben.
60 gold artifacts on the bottom of the ocean floor are valued at over $1 million.

The centerpiece is a single coin, called a Royal, that was destined to be delivered straight to Spanish King Phillip V, Brisben said.

 

The valuable find comes right before the 300-year anniversary when the 11-ship fleet sunk in a hurricane on July 31, 1715 off the Florida coast. The fleet had left from Havana, Cuba, on July 24, 1715.

Brisben said the discovery was made about a month ago, but he wanted to keep everything under wraps until the anniversary got closer.

Brisben said up to 20 percent of the find goes to Florida and the remainder of the treasure will be divided between the company and the Schmitt's.
