[QUOTE="BUncirculated, post: 1440957, member: 29581"]As rick pointed out those are religious medals and not coins. The round one with the "[I]CRUX S P. BENEDICTI" [/I]is a St. Benedict medal. The reverse side with the letters surrounding the cross are Latin initials for Vade Retro, Santana, Nunquam Suade Mihi Vana Sunt Mala Quae Libas Ipse Venena Bibas which means begone satan and suggest not to me your vain things. The cup you offer me is evil; drink your own poison. The horizontal bar of the cross with the NDSMD represents Non Draco Sit Mihi Dux; Let not the dragon be my guide. The vertical bar of the cross with CSSML; Crux Sacra Sit Mihi Lux; May the holy cross be my light. The hear shaped medal is the medal of immaculate conception, bearing the image of the virgin Mary, mother of Christ. The last medal relates to the 10th crusade of the 15th century I think.[/QUOTE]
