This medal is 2 7/8 inches across, fairly heavy, shows wear, and says Calendario Azteca Y Piedra Del Sol Mexico around the front. Aztec calendar and sun stone. It pegs silver on my detector, in the 50 cent region. My detector is very general in ID of metal though and goes into overload crazy on this thing. I scanned an old tarnished silver quarter along with the medal and the metal doesn't look alike. I cleaned the tarnish off the side of the medal and it's a silvery colored metal. I've been trying to get an idea of value and info online but all I've found is an uncirculated copper one that sold for $50. Sue

The other day I found one like it on Steve's Collectibles for $12.99. It has a hole punched in the top. He calls his vintage & thinks it might be pewter, but doesn't seem to know much about it - says a magnet doesn't stick to it. Hmm I am still hoping to find out what it is. I found it about 5 inches deep and had to hack in roots to get to it.  Sue

Hey Sweet Sue,
Although I'm many hundreds of years old, I'm sorry I can't help you on this one as the memory's not what it used to be.
We wish you all the best in your search for info on it.

Ian & Eileen
