| TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE When you buy any of the salvaged treasures that are
currently being - and will shortly be - marketed on this site, you'll not just be laying
claim to any old collectable. Old these long lost items certainly are, as they are,
indeed, also extremely collectable! But each golden coin, each shard of precious
porcelain, carries with it something more intangible - the very fact of its having rested
undisturbed on the seabed for countless decades, often centuries, and always as a result
of tragic circumstances.
The Douro coins - a limited edition - are certainly no exception. Every coin is unique;
their gleaming perfection significantly augmented by the impressions cast by age or the
ever-changing tides. If you choose to own - or send as a special gift - a Douro coin, you
will receive a Certificate of Authenticity declaring the gold sovereign to be one of those
salvaged by Sverker Hallstrom and his partner, Deep Sea Worker, in 1995.
Shipwreckexplorer.com will thus not accept any returned merchandise based on questions
of authenticity, or because of any blemishes or perceived flaws on any salvaged item.
That you are purchasing a recovered coin, or any of the other treasures to be purchased
here, through shipwreckexplorer.com should be, and is, a guarantee in itself. |
