Strange moon badge

[Aquila]

Today two hour hunt from several spots. Some musketballs and pistol balls and just one coin, 1720 öre in very bad shape. Also strange moon badge. One of the strangest items I have ever dug. .

It may be the an identification badge for a military unit, or for the miliraty forces of a noble, in the way of the stafford knot.

it looks to me like some sort of Islamic badge/pin...perhaps Turkish or Arabic?

Looks to me like some kind of door/drawer handle,
with one end missing. JMO. Nice finds, at any rate!

Todays hunt: Two 1720 öres, musketball, buttons. Nothing really special.

The old buttons are cool!Not sure about the moon piece but its old! could be some old flintlock pistol hardware
