Real Treasure - The Perfect Gift for Treasure Hunters

Kellyco is excited to offer real treasure to those who have no idea what to get their loved ones for Christmas!

Stunning gold nugget pendants from the western U.S. are available now. Each gold nugget is encased in a custom, 24k gold pendant frame and is exactly as it was the day it came from the ground. Each pendant is unique with various shapes of round, flat, curved and chunky but no matter the shape it will look magnificent when placed on a necklace of your choice. These are the most attractive gold nuggets that we have ever offered and supplies are limited. Kellyco proudly offers a 10 day, money back guarantee for each nugget pendant and various weights are available.

Kellyco also has Spanish "Pieces of Eight" Reals available as pendants. Unfortunately, only so many exist and still scatter the beaches to be found. Kellyco has a limited quantity of these unique Spanish Reals, mounted as a pendant in a silver, contoured bezel with a silver crown, available for the holiday season.

Each Real is unique due to the unusual way they were made. Molds for these coins were irregular at best and the King's assayer would clip the edges to ensure they met weight requirements. This means that there is no other coin in the world like the ones we sell – that you can own or gift to a loved one.

The story behind these Real's is well-known and documented. The El Salvador y San Jose, a Spanish merchant ship in route from Lima, Peru to Guayaquil, Ecuador, struck a rocky bank in August 1680 and sank adjacent to the island of Santa Clara. Located 20 miles from the coast of Ecuador the ship sank very quickly, scattering cargo across the reefs that included these silver coins.

In 1997 salvage divers located the scatter pattern of the ship's wreck site and recovered a number of the silver coins from pot holes and fissures in the reefs. This story is retold on the certificate of authenticity with the date the coin was made, the denomination, and the mint it was made at.

Each coin comes with a certificate of authenticity signed by the salvager, and Kellyco proudly offers a 10 day, money back guarantee for each coin pendant. Four different crown styles are available: Pirate, Sailfish, and two Dolphins – either jumping right or left.
