Vintage Religious Saint Francis Assisi Medal With Benediction


Vintage religious medal of Saint Francis Assisi - the medal measures approximately 15/16ths of an inch tall including the bail. I have not attempted to clean it. the back of the medal says in Latin

Benedicat tibi Dominus, et custodiat te; ostendat faciem suam tibi et misereatur tui. Convertat vultum suum ad te et det tibi pacem. Dominus benedicat te.

Which is the Benediction: The Lord bless you and keep you. May he show his face to you and show you mercy. May He turn his face to you and give you peace. The Lord bless you.
