The Faithful Steward wreck and Coin Beach
1785
Delaware Seashore, near the Indian River Inlet, Delaware
On the night of 1 September 1785 the Faithful Steward, carrying 249 Irish emigrants from Derry to Philadelphia, ran onto a shoal a few hundred feet off this shore near the mouth of the Indian River. 181 people died, 93 of them women and children. The ship also carried about 400 barrels of copper halfpennies, and storms still wash coins up onto the sand, which is why this stretch is known as Coin Beach.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
