It looks like a swear word. I couldn't pronounce it, and I wouldn't dare try it smile or no smile, to the Virginian gunfighter.

NI*ON ANOMHMATAMH.M.ONANO*IN=25 letters,wash(my)sins,not only(my)face.

whhhaaaaa...?

It's Greek. The asterisks are the letter psi (=ps). The H is a capital eta (long e) not a capital h. It should read:

NIPSON ANOMHMA MH MONON OPSIN

It's often found on baptismal fonts.
