A team of excavators has found $1 million in treasure from a centuries-old Spanish shipwreck off a stretch of Florida's east coast known as the “Treasure Coast.”

The shipwreck salvage company 1715 Fleet – Queens Jewels LLC announced the find this week.

The treasure includes more than 1,000 silver and gold coins. The company said it was recovered during the summer.

The fortune was lost at sea when a hurricane struck a fleet of Spanish ships in July 1715.

Treasure hunters have been combing the coast for generations looking for the fortune.

The salvage company says dates and mint marks are still visible on some coins.
