There is a bill in committee in the Florida Senate, SB868, that will make it illegal to remove any "archaeological specimen" from any City, County or State park AND all tidelands...AKA the PUBLIC BEACH!!! Please go the Treasurenet shipwrecks forum...there are links there to contact the involved state senators who will vote on this thing and to give you more information on the bill...go to the END of the thread... This is NOT just about shipwrecks!!!. It doesn't matter what state you live in...if you are even THINKING about going to Florida on vacation, this concerns YOU...As a matter of fact YOU will help even more, because you are tourist dollars to the State of Florida...Tell them you will spend those dollars elsewhere...This thing is no joke...Spread the word...the vote is TOMORROW...this bill has been snuck through the legislature...If it sounds like I am panicking, I am. A wheat penny can be construed to be an "archaeological specimen"...
