[QUOTE="sky92880, post: 7778775, member: 77343"]Thanks to all for the responses. Forgot to mention: weight: 14.65 grams diameter : 35.75 mm thickness : 21 mm @ insider: The item did not come from a junk box, the seller had the boxes (2 pieces, with everything in 2*2 holders, about 100 per box) from the previous owner. He hadn't priced anything yet. All pieces were either morgan / peace 1 dollar or mexican 1 (un) peso. I saw the representation on the piece (head with hands in prayer position) at an traveling exhibition in Brussels at the end of the 1980s on a photo of painting on an utensil. Not identical but similar. Also the figure on the back ( wizard - medicine man - elder appeared on walls of buildings. ( again: similar, not identical ). Archaeologists to whom I showed the object ( different in specialty ) were all there agree that it is not a modern fantasy piece. It lives with me in a box marked "don't know". Have a nice day! sky92880[/QUOTE]
