(Atocha) Research Coin Collection (photocopy) signed by Marisha Wagner Moran (1987), with copy of Key West Life article by Wagner Moran (1984). Spiral-bound SC, VF. Originals of the Atocha Research Collection catalog are extremely rare and were never meant for anything but promotion for the collection itself, which was hand-picked for investor-diver-lobbyist Marisha Wagner Moran and eventually sold piecemeal (mostly in the 1990s), a good portion of which is for sale in this auction. The catalog features an introduction and numismatic description (by Sandy McKinney) of each of the 237 coins in the special collection, with 16 photo-plates of 64 of the coins, also accompanied by an article that Marisha wrote for a local newsmagazine about the ongoing search (in 1984) for parts of the Atocha as well as another article about the author (with photo) in the same publication.
