Title
MEDAL
Description
English:

A cast white metal religious medal of the Post medieval period. It is circular and possibly has a suspension loop at the top (now missing). One side shows an apostle and child in the centre, with a chequered background behind, each square containing a fleur de lys. Around the boarder is a partially legible legend reading "[..] OF HUMILITY AND OBEDIENCE PRAY FOR US". The other side shows a figure of Mary with hands crossed over her chest surrounded by a penumbra. The boarder has fleur de lys at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock and a partially legible legend reading "HELP [..] PRAY FOR US". This is similar to a miracle medal and probably dates from the 18th or 19th century. The diameter is 43mm and the weight 19.11g.
