St. Benedict Medal 22mm aluminum, pack of 100 pieces. The front of the medal depicts St. Benedict with a cross in his right hand, a symbol of salvation, and the monastic rule in his left hand. Two symbols of miracles attributed to him are also present: a broken cup, recalling the poisoned wine shattered after the sign of the cross, and a crow carrying away poisoned bread, a sign of protection against dangers. These elements express the protective function of the medal, especially against poisons and evil influences. The acronym C.S.P.B. on the back stands for ''Cross of the Holy Father Benedict''. Inside the cross, the letters C.S.S.M.L. - N.D.S.M.D. mean: ''Let the holy cross be my light - May the devil not be my guide''. On the edge, the inscription V.R.S.N.S.M.V. shortens the prayer: ''Step back, Satan, do not tempt me with evil. Drink your own poisons.'' At the top, the word PAX, symbolizing peace, concludes the spiritual message of the medal. Made in Italy.
