Description:
Miniature medal of Saint Joseph with the Child. Low gold of 9K.
Obverse: represented Saint Joseph with the Child in his arms, both with borders on their heads, framed by a rim, with filigree on their sides and a border on its underside.
Reverse: Smooth. It has the following recordings: at the top, "A 9 z>". Beside him, "a parenthesis superior and another inferior, framing an illegible contrast". In the center, the word "LEO". In the lower part the date "24 -1-1145 ".
The inscriptions on the back are not understood. Those of the upper part, its meaning is unknown. The contrast could correspond to the gold. That of the center, could respond to the name of Leonor, or to the sign of the Leo Zodiac. The date of the lower part does not correspond to the apparent time of the Medal that, due to its characteristics, fits into the first half of the 20th Century. The year could be wrong, and it would reasonably have to be 1945.
It seems that the Medal was made by die, not of great quality. It has enough wear, not being reasonable this wear in relation to its time. In any case, the Medal has a nice and interesting patina.
Unable to distinguish any type of contrast or brand, the gold has been analyzed, and it has not been possible to ensure its purity, which is between 9K and 14K. Both the dimensions, and the weight, are approximate. The weight can be between one and two grams, since, not having a precision balance, it has been impossible to weigh accurately. Interesting as a collector"s item.

The piece presents the wear and tear of its time, as well as some stains. It has small flaws. The information provided here are personal opinions not contrasted.
