Plundered coins reveal where elusive pirate Henry Every got away to

Every literally got away with murder. Nobody could catch him, even though the King of England put a bounty over his head. He vanished under the identity of a slave trader and finally made off to Ireland in 1696 but not without dropping a few telltale coins first. Jim Bailey found one of those coins. That wasn’t the only thing he found. The amateur historian, who had previously assisted archaeologists with investigating the sunken secrets of a pirate shipwreck, has done research so extensive that even professionals in the field are impressed. What made Bailey’s coin stand out was that it was an Arabian coin of the same type that you would expect to find on the Ganj-i-Sawai, which was the ship Every suddenly attacked as it returned Muslim pilgrims home to India after a pilgrimage to holy Mecca.

A small trove of 17th-century Arabian coins has been unearthed in various locations across New England. They may help solve a centuries-old mystery surrounding a heinous ocean heist and the nefarious band of pirates who perpetrated it.    Jim Bailey, an amateur anthropologist and metal detectorist, discovered the first coin at a Middletown, Rhode Island fruit farm back in 2014. Research later proved that the coin was minted 1693 in Yemen, making it the oldest object of its kind ever discovered in North America, according to the Associated Press. Its presence was a major surprise, since evidence shows that American colonists didn’t travel to the Middle East until decades later.
