If you haven't read about it, a shipwrecks were recently discovered off the coast of Colombia that is loaded with gold and treasure. Seriously. The one with the gold and treasure they've known about for some time, but they discovered two more wrecks nearby that were previously unknown.
Now, getting to the treasure constitutes be a problem; it's very deep (950 meters), and there are competing claims on who would own whatever might get brought to the surface. Colombia claims it, but the Spanish government say it was their ship, and apparently a group in Bolivia says it was originally their gold.
Sticky.
But still, it's a pretty impressive set of historical ship discoveries.
