It not changing the subject. I'm speaking directly at how you process (or don't) information. In fact I see posts about bringing up treasure constantly, which is absurd. The buckle is probably the best artifact they've found at Melbourne Beach. Now read carefully, especially the last paragraph . The point is, you need to learn who to get information from. That's your biggest problem.
This is one of the dumbest organizations I've ever seen, as is the ad agency that pumps this trash.
Cupreous Buckle
As the smaller magnetic anomalies were being investigated utilizing the circle search method, on September 15th, one of the divers uncovered a small copper alloy buckle (MB660). The buckle SEA 00360, is pictured here.
This sort of a utilitarian buckle is common in the colonial period and examples have been recovered of nearly identical artifacts from shipwrecks associated with the 1715 fleet. Buckles of this sort were used for a variety of uses, this particular objects is likely not a shoe buckle. It may have been part of a strap assembly for a soldier ’s uniform, or it may have been a part of a harness for a horse. While its particular usage may be ambiguous, the fact that the object is clearly from the time period of the vessel we have as an intended target is quite important.
Buckles of this sort are described in both Ivor Noel Hume’s “A Guide to Artifacts of Colonial America” pp. 84-88 (University of Pennsylvania Press, 1969) as well as Kathleen Deegan’s “Artifacts of the Spanish Colonies of Florida and the Caribbean 1500 – 1800 Volume 2” pp. 180 – 192. (Smithsonian Institution Press, 2002)
The raising of the object off of the seabed in area MB514-1A is due to internal confusion over what permit we were operating under. It was unfortunately unclear that we were not operating under the same guidelines and restrictions that we were operating under permit MB514 –2 .

ALL ARTIFACTS ARE TO BE LEFT IN-SITU, just as GME found bronze cannons and other valuables and they remain on the ocean floor.
But you can stick with the $50K fine BS if it makes you feel better so you can change the subject from this POS. But this is what they've given to the BAR, and that's a fact. I get why you wouldn't want to discuss it.
BTW....the BAR wants to know what happened to their buckle? Read their comments on the right.
