Sometime in the late 90s A family member of mine was on an archeological dive to what was rumored to be the Queen Annes Revenge. He was in college at the time, Several samples of the wood were taken from the top rail near the cannons. This particular piece was taken directly under where the cannon would be. I can of course provide more proof to the new owner, Pictures of the crew and such, Its been in my family since then. It has been kept in a cool dark cabinet since the late 90s.
I have looked into it and it truly is a piece of the Queen Annes Revenge. I've been told that the container it is in was taken down and a chisel was used to remove the piece. I have been told it is okay to display even in sunlight and that the water it is in is indeed the ocean water.
