Hi,
I know this isn't a coin but people here seem to know so much I was wondering if anyone could help with the iconography of this amulette and what it would have meant in ancient times. 
The two possibilites I have come up with is a hebrew half moon for protection against the evil eye and a islamic half moon for good luck.  Does anybody know which? or neither?
I would appreciate any help.
Thank You,

oh ... it is bronze 28mm x 18mm x4mm and weight about 4.5g
