Yes they are. I figured out some of the meanings, not all of them. It looks and feels hand made and could be made of silver.Egyptian characters?
I don't see any numbers or letters on it anywhere. That one bad spot looks like it could be a mistake in a symbol and was flipped over to start again.If this was sterling, it would most likely be marked. The color seems wrong, as well. Do you have a photo of the back?
It looks like a mystical/psychic medallion of some kind, for casting spells, etc.
Yes I think that's it, thanks. Not sure why they would solder over it though.search images for Pat Flanaghan Experimental Sensor Medallion, they are all over the internet.
Looks like someone soldered over the lettering that should be on the back, with date of 1976
Wow that is interesting! I believe it was my dad's or his brothers. Good to know the history of it though I appreciate your help! I'm curious to know if it actually works. I'm not much for superstition but I'll give it a go.Her is some info about your medallion, very interesting!
