The photo shows a large “dark block” covered with bullets. From afar, it may look like a long-forgotten chest filled with gold and jewels, but it’s actually something more practical: rubber.

Inside the Nazi ship were hidden bales of rubber, along with cargoes of tin, copper, and cobalt. A blockade ship, the SS Rio Grande, was spotted off Brazil in 1944 by two American ships, a cruiser and a destroyer.

“The American ship bombarded the Rio Grande until it sank, sending all of its cargo to the ocean floor where it stood until recently,” officials said.

The 200-pound (about 91 kg) rubber roll recently found on Mustang Island isn’t the first “treasure” to appear off the coast of the United States. Such finds are periodically noticed in Texas and Florida.

The wreckage of the SS Rio Grande held X’s cargo for years, but officials say over time the bales break off and float to the surface as the ship returns to the wreckage.

According to the National Museum of the Second World War, rubber was vital to the war for all the countries involved in the conflict. Rubber was consistently insufficient to sustain military production.
