- Medal in the shape of an Area of intersection of two circles, die-cut in aluminium. The style is late Neo-Gothic. Probably end of the first half of the 20th century.
- Obverse: Virgin standing on a ball of the World, with her arms crossed on her chest, crowned and bordered, on a background dotted with the Symbol of the Marian Congregation.
- This Symbol is derived from the Chrismon, with the superimposed letters X (Chi) (K) and P (rho) (r), which are the first two letters in Greek of the word Xpiotóc (Christos) (The Anointed). Two bars hang from the two upper arms of the X, transforming the X into an M for Mary.
- The motto "CONGREGATIO MARIANA" is inscribed on the perimeter. "AVE GRATIA PLENA DOMINUS TECUM". (Marian Congregation. Ave full of grace).
- Reverse: On the base there are two ornamented Saints, one with a Chalice in his hands, sign of the Blood of Christ, and the other with an Infant Jesus in his hands, sign of the Birth of the Infancy of Christ. Between the two is a bouquet of flowers from which emerges a third ornamented Saint, holding a Crucifix in his hands, a sign of the sacrifice of Jesus for the World.
- Bordering the upper third, the motto is inscribed: "ADJUTOR ET PROTECTOR FACTUS EST MIHI". (You are my helper and protector). (MIHI)
- In the lower third, the Motto is inscribed: "COR UNUM ET ANIMA UNA". (One Heart and One Soul).
- In the lower corner is inscribed the Symbol of Mary "A M", the letter A linked with the letter M. Its meaning is Ave Maria.
- To the right of the lower corner is the inscription "AUSIÓ", corresponding to the author of the high reliefs.
- This medal is very rare. There are other medals, more common, of the same Marian Congregation, with a similar design, but not the same.
- A Marian Congregation is a group of Catholic faithful, most of the Congregations being linked to the Society of Jesus.
Conservation and damage:
- The Medal is in a very good state of preservation, showing a high level of wear on both the obverse and the reverse.
- A gold-plated ring has been added later.
- It shows wear typical of it"s age.
