Someone asked recently

(Do 64-bit V-CONs exist?)

and someone else replied

I don't think so, but 64-bit AD-cons with EXTRN do.

try a VD-type adcon.  (See the HLASM Language Reference.)

Note that there is a MAJOR difference between the value that ends up on a VCON vs an EXTRN'ed ACON. A VCON ends up with the address of the external address. An ACON gets that address ADDED to the original value in the ACON.

IOW:
  EXTRN EXTERNAL
  DC    V(EXTERNAL+4) points at EXTERNAL
  DC    A(EXTERNAL+4) points 4 bytes past EXTERNAL
