Nice pendant, but I don't get the "hockeyfans" reference to a hunter with his dogs.

Now that is different! Nice find. Hockeyfan is the guy who found it, he doesnt have internet. snooksion posts his finds, like he did in the past, a few years ago.

Some Cuban or Hispanic lost the San Lazaro pendant. He is the patron saint of the ill. Nice find! The symbol is Lazzareth the leper on crutches with a sick dog.

Got this article from a Cuban post about San Lazaro

Wish more people will read your link and realize that the REAL St Lazaro was the one resurrected by Jesus!!
Unfortunatelly, the St Lazaro most Cubans venerate, is the one depicted wearing crutches, with the dogs leaking his wounds...this Lazarous was the begger in the "parables" of Jesus Christ, not the same St Lazaro recognized by the church.
I heard that there was a church called St Lazaro in Hialeah?

nice chunk of gold!!!

I found one almost exactly the same, different loop at the top, in July 2010 at an un-named Florida beach. Mine was unmarked, but tested out to 18k when I sold it.....a very heavy piece....

Good luck.
