The story of HMS Bounty is one of the most famous in all the history of the Royal Navy, seeing a voyage across the world, a tyrannical captain, mutiny, an improbable story of survival, a manhunt across the Pacific, and finally, a self-imposed stranding in the middle of nowhere.
The complete history of the Bounty is a fascinating one, and I encourage those who are interested in learning more to read "The Bounty" by Caroline Alexander (or the Wikipedia page if you're lazy 😂). 
The history of this coin following the sinking of the Bounty is also fascinating. Luis Marden, a photographer for National Geographic for 42 years, a world-renowned linguist, and a pioneer in underwater photography discovered the wreckage on Pitcairn Island in January 1957. During his salvage, amongst other artifacts, 18 coins were discovered in a vase. 
Marden would keep these coins in his personal collection until the end of his life when he gave all 18 coins to Tony Probst, a well- known collector of artifacts from the Bounty and Pitcairn Island. 16 coins remain in possession of Probst, with one being sold privately to a local collector, and this one being traded to William Gray for 50 letters and 100 postcards from the descendants of the Bounty. Gray then sold the coin via third party to the owner of the Knapton Collection, where it now resides.
