    Description

    PLEASE NOTE THAT THE MEDAL IS FOR SALE, THE PICTURES ARE NOT.
    This medal is one of several from the estate collection of Mexico Bishop Pascual Diaz. The Most Reverend Pascual Díaz y Barreto, SJ (June 22, 1876 – May 19, 1936) was a Mexican prelate of the Roman Catholic Church, who served as Archbishop of Mexico City from June 22, 1929 until his death in 1936.
    All our listed items are original Christian devotionals. Some may have been cleaned or polished before their arrival, by their last caretaker. Their use is for personal devotion.
    On consignment for auction from one of the convents we work with is a rare antique 18th century medal. It
    is 2 inches long and weighs 28 grams of bronze.
    This medals dating can be confirmed on pages 2 and 3 of the book AN INTRODUCTION TO RELIGIOUS MEDALS, by Bob Forrest, and published by NUMISMATICA INTERNATIONAL in 2004. In addition, this book has chapters (outlined in the table of contents), describing each of the categories of medals, their possible place of pilgrimage (acquisition), and origin of the mint where they were made. We recommend that anyone serious about collecting medals from this period, acquire a copy of this book.
