Grade 3 Atocha Coins Grade 3 Atocha coins exhibit more severe corrosion and are
typically well under weight. Sometimes one side of the coin will
show corrosion while the other side does not, or a portion of the planchet
may be totally missing with decent detail on what is remaining.
Often either the mintmark, assayer mark or denomination are still visible.
Atocha coins are supplied with the
original photo type Certificate of Authenticity and a booklet "Shipwrecks
and Their Coins: Volume 1 - 1622 Spanish Treasure Fleet" that
provides details about the fleet and its coins.
