✅ SOLVED Beach Find : Looks like some sort of religious charm..?

[ee-vaq]

Hi, I went out to the beach this morning to test out a new detector( simplex+ ) and found this tiny little charm near the beach volleyball courts in the first few minutes. Can anyone ID it.? It is only about a half inch in diameter and appears to be religious but not sure what religion. I don't know if it would be silver or some other type of metal. The attachment point has a break in it and that is probably why it was in the sand.! The other photo is just of the other junk and a nice sunrise along the sand.

Thanks for any info.

Wow, that looks much nicer than mine.! The one I found has a bit of a "goldish" color in the right light, but probably is not gold. Thanks for the information.
