[antir-heralds] period charge?

Greetings :)

I am tossing around the following blazon for a badge:

Per fess sable and argent, a roundel between a decrescent and an increscent argent and a Marian star sable.

I'm pretty sure that "a Marian star" would conflict with "a mullet of six points" because they appear almost the same, but I am curious if it can even be blazoned as "a Marian star" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marian_Star). None have been registered as such, but there are 102 instances of "a mullet of six points" in the armorial.

I am also not certain I blazoned it right. A picture is here: http://home.comcast.net/~earth.goddess/aine_badge.GIF. Yes, I know badges don't go on a shield-shaped form, but it was so much easier to make it in paint that way :)

I figure this also gives me a really good test of my conflict checking abilities if the blazon is done right. :)

Thanks!
