What does a horseshoe nail on a necklace mean?

I met a girl who was wearing a necklace that was a horse shoe nail on a heavy cord. My daughter asked her where she got it, and she said it was very important and her church gave it to her. I didn't want to press her for details, but I was wondering what the significance of it was. I recognize a "nail of the cross", but usually I just see crosses made out of nails, or see actual farriers wearing them, not just a single nail. Can anyone tell me why she considers it so important?

Think about for a minute. I don't think they had nice shiny nails back in the day. They were probably more like a railroad spike. That, would be a little much to wear on the neck, so I'm thinking that the horseshoe nail was as close as she thought she would get.... Show More

She considers it important because her church gave it to her. I have no idea what the story was that came along with the nail, but apparently she must have liked it.... Show More
