  • fascinating, do you know what the letters mean  in the middle?

  • The middle says, "Allah", or God in English.

  • @Thank you Hillary, I thought so, but I was not sure.

  • Jose was that from E Kunuz? They had a very similar one and I wasnt sure whether to buy it or not.......then it disappeared.So I bought another one!

  • I have had this for some years now. I am afraid though that I do not remember if I bought it from E. Kenoz or directly in Cairo. I know that E Kenoz usually has this type of amulets. He is a very good and reliable seller.
