Originally aired on Sunday, April 22, 2012, the 60 Minutes episode examines the recovery of over 65,000 Colombian emeralds by Jay Miscovich of Latrobe, Pennsylvania. Said 60 Minutes, “Last year, we got wind of a story that seemed — on the surface — too good to be true. An amateur diver and part-time treasure hunter had made one of the largest discoveries of sunken treasure in history: a sea bed covered in raw emeralds off the coast of Key West, Florida.”
