Can anyone identify this unknown French medal/pendant? Looks like a Cross of Lorraine being clutched by an armored fist. Approx 1 1/2 inches tall. Any ideas?

Hi Husky43.

 

I believe that is Irish Donegal Cross which is pointed at the base making it a Fitched Cross. This link has your shield and an explanation as to what it means.
