Here are the unique traits of each miraculous medal that I produce.
-
Each one is coined by hand in a high tonnage press using our
custom made steel die.
-
After coining, I trim, drill, deburr, and polish them to a
lustrous shine, and then touch them to first class relics of St.
Catherine Laboure, St. John Newmann, St. Maximillian Kolbe.
-
Because each medal is made here, "U.S.A." is raised underneath
the Sacred and Immaculate Hearts of Mary, symbolizing America's
consecration to the Blessed Virgin by our bishops in the 19th
Century.
-
No photograph can convey the weight and feel of this medal,
which is 2 or 3 times the thickness--even in silver or
gold--of typical "production line" medals.
-
The photograph below shows the fine detail of the carefully
sculpted image of Our Lady -- her fingers, her windblown garment,
and even the features of Mary's face!

Medals Approximately 1 inch top to bottom, 1/2 inch side to side.
