Puerto Bello was an important silver exporting port for the Spanish treasure fleets and under Spanish control from the 16th - 18th Century. The Battle of Puerto Bello took place on 21st November 1739 between the English and Spanish troops in present day Panama. It was part of the War of Jenkins ear, so named after the Captain Robert Jenkins who supposedly had his ear severed by a Spanish Coastguard and later exhibited it, pickled, to the House of Commons in 1738. This rallied British feeling against the Spanish and the Prime Minister, Robert Walpole, reluctantly declared war. Puerto Bello was captured with relative ease by six ships under the command of Admiral Edward Vernon commanding six ships on 21st November 1739. The news was received enthusiastically in London with God save the King being sung for the first time and the London street named after the victory. The war continued with a number of indecisive naval battles and a great deal of privateering on both sides. £8000-10000 | Nil |
