We provide evidence that indicate the star cluster Pfleiderer 2 , which is projected in a rich field , as a newly identified Galactic globular cluster . Since it is located in a crowded field , core extraction and decontamination tools were applied to reveal the cluster sequences in B , V and I Color-Magnitude Diagrams ( CMDs ) . The main CMD features of Pfleiderer 2 are a tilted Red Giant Branch , and a red Horizontal Branch , indicating a high metallicity around solar . The reddening is E ( B-V ) =1.01 . The globular cluster is located at a distance from the Sun d _ { \odot } = 16 \pm 2 kpc . The cluster is located at 2.7 kpc above the Galactic plane and at a distance from the Galactic center of R _ { GC } =9.7 kpc , which is unusual for a metal-rich globular cluster .
