RECOVERED FROM WRECK OF THE TITANIC

Lump of coal sells for £1,500

A SMALL lump of coal recovered from the Titanic wreck is one of hundreds of pieces of shipwreck memorabilia that went under the hammer last week – with that item in particular selling for £1,500.

Some of the lots sold for much more, with model ships going for thousands of pounds after the collection from the Shipwreck Treasure Museum in Charlestown, near St Austell, went up for auction with the building itself still for sale. Auctioneer David Lay said he had never seen a sale like it, with thousands of bids coming in from all over the world.

Just days before the auction of around 8,000 pieces, a deal was struck with the Maritime Archaeology Sea Trust (MAST), to buy 500 of the most sensitive objects from Britain’s wreck sites, which will be preserved for future generations.
