[bicyclerider]

I posted this in the "whats this forum" and it was suggested to repost in this Spanish cobb forum.
Can anyone shed some light on this?

Trez, I'm having trouble finding a copy of the book.....Practical Book of Cobs - D & F Sedwick. Any ideas where to get one? Thanks!

I suggest that you take a lot of photos from different angles, weigh the coin and test it for silver content (this can be done at any Jewelry shop) then send the information to SEDWICK for his OPINION.
