    Medal of the Jesuit order?


    Recommended Posts

    Good day,

    I need advice on this medal. Badge of the Jesuit Order 1875, Pontificate of Pius IX, silver 58 x 31 mm, original hinge, Badge in the shape of a Christogram. Do you have any similarities? Thanks.

    hello,
    As said before, it doesn't actually appear to be a medal, there is a model similar to yours for sale on ebay, described as a "medal awarded by Pius IX to the Jesuits", due to the shape of the eyelet that looks like it was worn with a chain.
    It is difficult to be sure what it is, but it is very likely that it was a gift on the occasion of the Jubilee of 1875 (which occurred in a limited way on the occasion of Italian unification), this type of gifts are very common during jubilees
