For other similar case (this time the shipwreck was found in Portugal) see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuestra_Se%C3%B1ora_de_las_Mer... A private company (Odyssey Marine Exploration) salvaged the wreck illegally: > On February 17, 2012, it was reported that U.S. Magistrate Judge Mark Pizzo ordered Odyssey to return the coins to Spain by February 24, 2012, where they will be dispersed to museums, not to heirs. The Supreme Court declined to stay this order and Odyssey will abide by the decision.[23] On February 24, 2012, two C-130 Hercules aircraft from the Spanish Air Force picked up the treasure in Florida and transported it to Spain.[24] Odyssey petitioned the Supreme Court to reconsider the issues in the case but on May 14, 2012, the court declined to take up the appeal.[25] The coins have been returned to Spain, whereby Spanish law dictates that they can never be sold to the public. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Swan_Project The treasure can be visited at the Museno Nacional de Arqueología Subacuática in Cartagena (Murcia, Spain) https://www.culturaydeporte.gob.es/mnarqua/colecciones/pieza...
