The SS Central America, lost in 1857, remained undiscovered until the 1980's. Using historical notes combined with state-of-the-art technology the Columbus-America Discovery Group located the ship in over eight thousand feet of water. With the robotic submersible Nemo, the explorers were able to carefully retrieve over 7,000 coins, hundreds of gold bars, and numerous gold nuggets.
