Treasure of Concption
Some interferences, the best i could get .In 1641, a deadly combination of treacherous waters and high winds brought the Concepcion to an untimely end. Though the ship would never sail again, its saga was just beginning. For over 300 years, tales of the treasure aboard the lost galleon brought adventurers to the Caribbean. It is just one quirk of the Concepcion's tale that she was found twice! THE WRECK OF THE CONCEPCION tells the story of Burt Webber, who invested years researching and preparing to salvage the lost ship. In 1978, he realized his dream, recovering riches worth almost $14 million from the ocean floor. Here, Webber talks about his moment of triumph, while extensive footage of the recovery documents the complicated operation. Discover how he beat better-known and better-funded competitors like Mel Fisher and Jacques Cousteau to the treasure, and why he is planning another dive on the ship for the spring of 1998. And learn of the Massachusetts man who first found the Concepcion, recovering 25 tons of silver in 1687, but leaving the rest behind!

All this treasure is buried under 4 to 12ft of sand. You’d cross rite over it and never see it. Without specialized equipment.
In 2007 I spent about a week diving at the Concepcion wrecking site in the Silver Banks. What an adventure even though we didn't find anything but dropped equipment from former expeditions.
The best thing here is the name. Nuestra Señora de Conception. It refered to our lady and her Immaculate Conception. Something most people forgot about.
The treasure on these ships was incredible Spain at one time was so accomplished but was ruined after the Napoleonic wars and has never recovered to this day
Loved it thanks

Still a bad video u can't change that, but I liked it myself, ive seen worse
Very interesting video. There are problems with the video but still watchable. It's funny that Phipps and Webber have so much in common. Maybe a case of reincarnation. Some very odd coincidences. The value of the wreck is hard to place because Phipps got some, the mystery ship got some, and now Webber. So hard to tell what it was worth intact.
made me dizzy. was like watching a bad bootleg tape.

The magnetic tape likely degraded. A simple test of this would be trying a known good tape which likely to have happened, not the playback head this was transferred from.
