The discovery took place while the crew member, identified as Michael Lawson, was inspecting a storage area below deck. Lawson, a long-time staff member aboard the ship, was conducting a regular check when he stumbled upon a rusted, old chest tucked away in a forgotten corner of the compartment. Initially, Lawson thought it was merely an old, discarded piece of equipment. However, after closer inspection, he realized the chest appeared to be much more valuable than it seemed
Upon opening the chest, Lawson found a collection of gold coins, rare jewelry, and what appeared to be precious artifacts. The haul, which included items with intricate designs and centuries-old craftsmanship, was immediately brought to the attention of the ship’s captain and security team. Experts were quickly called in to assess the value of the discovery, and it became clear that the treasure could be worth millions of dollars.
