Antique medals


Antique medals can be religious medals but not necessarily. It is obvious that we will find all the medals of baptism, communion, medals of Virgin Mary, small fine crosses, representations of Saint Christopher or Saint Joseph. But medals can also be symbolic or sentimental without being religious. They can be the testimony of a love, as proven by the Augis medals: they are medals of love, on which are inscribed like a rebus the message “I love you more than yesterday and less than tomorrow”. The medal is a flat jewel, which is worn at the end of a chain or sometimes on a bracelet.
