A new museum will display the priceless bounty.
A treasure trove of gold coins, gemstones and jewels was recently uncovered at a 366-year-old Spanish shipwreck.
Because historians often consider the Maravillas"one of the great treasure-laden Spanish galleons," the shipwreck has become a target for looters. The vast majority of the treasure was ransacked between 1656 and the early 1990s, according to the Bahamas Maritime Museum .
One of the gold pendants features a large, oval Colombian emerald and a dozen smaller emeralds, which may represent the Twelve Apostles, alongside a heraldic motif known as the Cross of St. James, CNN reported.
