Antique Vintage Catholic Medal / Charm of ST. RAYMOND NONNATUS
The medal features a lovely image of St. Raymond. He is invoked as the patron saint of expectant mothers, obstetrictians, midwives, newborn babies etc.
It appears to be from about the 1950's or 60's. Medals similar to these are being duplicated, but this is an original vintage one. You can tell by the extra heavy-duty bail, and the weight, detail and quality that is so much better than the new ones. It was made in Italy.
It measures 1" tall. I photographed both sides so that you can see the quality and details.
The metal is silver finish. It has a heavy duty bail for attaching to a chain, charm bracelet or favorite rosary.
It is in good condition. It has a beautiful old patina.
I have obtained a large collection of similar vintage Catholic medals that I'll be listing.
