Spain wins battle for shipwreck treasure

After centuries on the ocean floor and a five year-long legal battle, a massive haul of sunken treasure has finally arrived in Spain.

The ancient gold and silver coins, worth an estimated $500m, were recovered from a sunken Spanish ship in 2007 by a US exploration company.

In the ensuing legal battle, Spain successfully argued that the treasure was part of its heritage and should be given back.
