Does anyone recognize this shard? I'm trying to put a McKearin Wilson number to it but I can't find it in the tables. The embossing is COVENTRY C-T, and there is a small bit of what I assumed was an eagle right near the break. Thanks for any clues, hope you all are having a good summer!

Awesome, that's it exactly! What a heartbreaker, it's a beautiful yellow amber color with no olive in it at all. Methinks that spot might deserve another dive or two :)

Thanks for the help! I'll post another question later today about an Indian Sagwa that came from the same place.

Well, yeah, maybe. Let's just say that it's a spot that has seen a lot of searching over the years and most of what's there is of the shard variety. You can never tell though, we burned two tanks each there yesteryday and came up with 1 keeper in my opinion (the sagwa). There was an intact liquozone and a pontiled scent with most of the lip gone, but I guess the deciding factor there is how much shelf space you have left :)
