Not many i'll bet, but definitely more than what
also know that Revere lost a whole chest of hand made silver items that he'd taken along to sell if the opportunity arose. It was lost on one of the ships they scuttled and still has not been recovered (at least that we know of). Imagine what the contents would be worth today!
There's a lot of money sitting somewhere on the bottom of the Penobscot bay. Last time I dove there i didn't find any of it...
BTW there's also rumors of a U-Boat wreck somewhere out in that bay as well.
