Description: The now 205-year-old Admiral Gardner shipwreck coin is a historical treasure minted in 1808, recovered from the wreck of the East India Company ship, Admiral Gardner, which sank on January 25, 1809. The ship was en route to India when it encountered a violent storm in the English Channel, leading to its tragic demise off the coast of Kent. This coin, marked “C-35,” is a part of the East India Company’s copper currency, originally intended for trade in India. Preserved beneath the sea for over 186 years, the coin’s intricate details are still visible, offering a tangible connection to maritime history and colonial trade.
