This medal is 1.5 inches long and weighs 16 grams ofbronze. It is an original medal from my late mother's vast estate collection ofCatholic Medals (Bertha; the founder of Church-Woman Antiques).
The medals dating can be confirmed on pages 2 & 3 ofthe book AN INTRODUCTION TO RELIGIOUS MEDALS, by Bob Forrest, and published byNUMISMATICA INTERNATIONAL in 2004.In addition this book has chapters (outlinedin the table of contents), describing each of the categories of medals, theirpossible place of pilgrimage (acquisition), and origin of the mint where theywere made. We recommend that anyone serious about collecting medals from thisperiod acquire a copy of this book.
