Post by Brianshny »

This is a bizarre piece of something. Foreign language written all over it with no marking of silver. It weighs .04oz and I have looked and looked..what in the world is this ??

Welcome to the forum,

The writing is the Jewish Traveller Prayer in Hebrew. The item is a called a HAMSA keychain and is apparently often gifted to those about to embark on a trip. It looks like the previous owners name was Nial.

Whether its made from silver, I'm unable to tell however it does appear to have tarnish around the edges so its a possibility.

Cheers,
Steve
