The Moon is a basic sunlit scene, so you can use the "Sunny 16" rule-- shutter speed of 1/your ISO, aperture f/16 (for example, at ISO 100 use 1/100 second)...

... but increase exposure by 1-2 stops since the Sunny 16 rule shows the Moon in its natural brightness, which is about as dark as asphalt.
