NCIS New Orleans has someone talking about carbon dating silver coins to the mid 1700s.

Carbon dating silver? Really?

In that case, I think archeologists go through the entire cache looking for the latest coins as that establishes the earliest possible date of the wreck. That can leave a pretty wide field, though, if the last monarch on the coins had a long rule.
