I've not heard the term since then and have no way of knowing if there was any basis for the tale but thought it may be worth passing on.
Thank you Mel,

But a mead moah is something different, it's a talisman and blessed with an inscription, see the both examples in my collection. They can be similar small but most are somewhat bigger.
