Blackbeards Prize Dated 1717 , 8 reales , Potosi Bolivia , Heavy 14Kt Gold Bezel w/20 point Diamond... $950.00 Edward Thatch, the pirate who came to be known as Blackbeard, is believed to have been born around 1680 in the vicinity of Bristol, England's second most important port. He was given control of various prizes in 1716, but didnt receive his first truly independent command in September 1717. This was the Revenge, the sloop of the wayward gentleman pirate Stede Bonnet, who had shown up in Nassau grievously wounded. Blackbeard used her to attack shipping off the Carolinas, Virginia, and Delaware, then took a direct, offshore passage to the outer rim of the eastern Caribbean, where, on November 28, 1717, he made his most famous capture. Blackbeard's capture of the 250-ton French slaver La Concorde made him one of the most dangerous pirates in the Americas. Blackbeard's gang mounted her with 22 guns and renamed her the Queen Anne's Revenge
