Cafe Con Libros Presentation at the Library to Explore Shipwrecks and Treasure Coins
Thursday, February 25, at 9:30 a.m., Key West Library’s Café con Libros program welcomes photographer, publicist and historic shipwreck professional Carol Tedesco, who will give a 50 minute PowerPoint presentation on Florida’s 1622 Fleet shipwrecks, covering where they were coming from, where they were going, and why.
An internationally recognized treasure coin expert and author of “Treasure Coins of the Nuestra Senora de Atocha and the Santa Margarita” and of “The Deep-Sea Dry Tortugas Shipwreck, Florida (1622): the Silver Coins,” Tedesco’s presentation will include an in-depth “everything you wanted to know” tutorial about the legendary silver “pieces of eight” treasure coins of the 1622 Fleet and invites those who wish to know more about their own coins to bring them to the presentation.
Doors will open at 9:30 for coffee and pastries; the PowerPoint presentation begins at 10:00 a.m.
