Looks like a old style Athena owl, but it doesn't look right.
Can we see the back of the coin.

@matuskeo, first welcome to CCF. Second, I agree that the owl looks somewhat Athenian in style, but this piece looks like a tourist copy or even a jewelry bangle rather than the real thing. Can you please post a pic of the edge of this piece? Also, despite the rev being blank, it actually does help us to see that side as well. We are looking for small clues that can indicate how the piece was made. For yours, I betting on it being cast, but the edge pic should confirm that.

Apparently, there was a photo, but then the post was edited to remove the photo and add the word closed. I am guessing they are no longer interested.
