Medal of the Venerable Mother Pelletier. She is now known as St Mary Euphrasia. She was beatified in 1933 and canonized in 1940, so this predates 1933. On the back
is Jesus with a lamb and the French inscription that can be translated as
"I am the Good Shepherd". This is quite appropriate since St Mary
Euphrasia was the foundress of the congregation of Our Lady of Charity
of the Good Shepherd.
Measures approx 1" in diameter. Made of thick aluminum.
Good antique condition with wear consistent with age. May require additional polishing as desired.
