This is a color concept of the popular catholic medal "The Miraculous Medal". It is said to work miracles in our lives. Let's hope so. St. Catherine Labore was visited by an apparition of the Virgin Mary. Mary wanted a medal struck under these specifications... Blessed Virgin as if standing on a globe. As if from rings set with precious stones dazzling rays of light were emitted from her fingers. These, she said, were symbols of the graces which would be bestowed on all who asked for them. Sister Catherine adds that around the figure appeared an oval frame bearing in golden letters the words "O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee"; on the back appeared the letter M, surmounted by a cross, with a crossbar beneath it, and under all the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, the former surrounded by a crown of thorns, and the latter pierced by a sword. The Inscription: Latin: O Maria, sine labe concepta, ora pro nobis qui ad te confugimus English: O Mary conceived without sin pray for us who have recourse to you Espa
