Re: Look familiar?
Yes. Coryphantha. I find its almost always difficult to idea species in this group. To make matters worse, they readily hybridize.

Re: Look familiar?
I think probably Coryphantha pallida subs. calipensis, judging by the multiple central spines. The others suggested have a single central.
