I was wondering if it was an ankh.
It was popular for a while.

Other options could be a band name/shortened name?Friendship necklace?

They say half a letter? If the bottom part is broken off it could be a J, I,or L?

Hmmm....I wondered if it could simply be a cross, but it looks a bit unusual for one? I increased the size, which caused a great deal of pixelation, but this could be many other things.

Hmmm.... the amount and type of jewelry makes me think someone should take a look t Simone Ridinger as well. The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs)
