<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eclectic Collector, post: 6628440, member: 118494&quot;]The backstory, I sold a Guatemalan Milagro Necklace, or Chachal to Guatemalans, back in 2005 and regretted it ever since. I&#039;ll enclose pictures. It had Milagros and Guatemalan and Spanish or Mexican coins and cobs.</p><p><br /></p><p>The tiny charms are called Milagros, used to ask for miracles for healing the body part they represent. Sometimes they&#039;re hands, legs, hearts, lungs, eyes, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>My Milagro necklace was the best and most authentic I&#039;ve seen in decades and I&#039;ve been trying to find its equal, (that I can afford), for nearly two decades, to no avail.</p><p><br /></p><p>Therefore, I&#039;ve decided to try and assemble the parts to create another, each piece being exactly like the original, as much as is humanly possible.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s where the coins come in, there were Guatemalan coins that are not too difficult to find, but then there are Spanish or Mexican cobs, one of them seems authentic. I would like to know what that coin is called and how I may find another. I bought what claims to be an authentic Spanish/ Mexican cob. It may be a Mexico 1618-Mo D Half Real; is it authentic?</p><p><br /></p><p>If you could tell me what the cob on the necklace is called</p><p>and also if the coin I bought is authentic, I would be very appreciative.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks so much in advance,</p><p><br /></p><p>Mary</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1267642[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1267643[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1267644[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1267645[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1267646[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
