Went to the older park and hit this at +72 VDI on my DFX. I rushed home to post it at see what you guys think. Can it be? Also a Sterling Religios Pendant. Broke out of my Silver drought big time..

It sure does look like a Spanish cob to me too. Excellent one Bruce! thumbsup01
You may want to check this site out for some info and perhaps an ID.
Thanks for the link Angel, I do think it's a Cob as well. I'm quite thrilled!

Looks real to me too, but the VDI seems low? It's about the size of a dime or a little bigger, it should VDI around 80. I hope it's real though.

Great find Bruce! You make me green with Envy!

Holy cow Bruce! That is an incredible find! From the pics it sure looks real to me too! If it was fake I don't think you would see a wear pattern like that. As far as the VDI is concerned it looks really thin which may account for the lower VDI.
I'm thinking of sending it off to get authenicated. It is quite thin and that's why the VDI was low. We shall see.. Thanks for the comments!

Real thin can do that too. I've found silver dimes that came up like pennies because they were worn thin. Awesome find dude!

I can tell you one thing. I'd be back to the spot where I found it with a backhoe.
