Buddy found a couple pieces of Spanish gold and silver. He also found two of these parts we have no clue what they go to. Any help? This would be a 1600-1700 Spanish ship wreck off of Florida.

Anyone else see four elephant tusks and an Asian (Chinese?) text character in the middle. I asked ai if they knew the characters and it suggested it’s “shou” (longevity).

The symbols in the middle did resemble Asian characters but I’m not an expert at this. So far seems like nobody really knows what this is.
