About this listen

In 1857, a ship carrying an unimaginable fortune vanished in a violent storm off the Atlantic coast. The loss shocked the nation and sent millions in gold to the bottom of the ocean. This story didn’t end with the wreck. More than a century later, the discovery of the SS Central America, known as the Ship of Gold, would ignite a modern-day treasure hunt filled with legal battles, missing gold, and a mystery that remains unsolved. In this episode of Coast Files, we uncover the story of the SS Central America—a disaster where greed, tragedy, and lost treasure collide.
