Christian Greece honored the mother associated with the feast of Ypapanti (Feb. 2). The Οrthodox Church celebrates the day the Virgin Mary, with Joseph, took the 40-day-old Jesus to the temple to be blessed.

However, in the 1960s, the celebration of Ypapanti lost its popularity, and Greeks started honoring the mother on the second Sunday of May as the rest of the West, even though the Church insists on the old day of celebration.

In 1982 the second Sunday in May fell on May 9 (the date on your pendant).

AG2012 thx very much it stamped 999 hallmark is it possible that its pure silver?

[AG2012]

The Hellenic inscription is pronounced in modern Greek like this:
Afiéroma sti mitera

[AG2012]

999 means fine (almost pure) silver. There is a signature of the sculptor. It would be interesting to decipher who designed the relief, could be an important Greek artist.
