todays photo on the good side of the Big Guy

From the land of the Bluenose...being Sunday I thought it only fitting that I post a silver find that refects the day.This was found in a park inside a fob with prayer beads, cross and the remains of about 35 dollars in paper money which had only corners of the bills as the rest had rotted. Had the inscription translated once but misplaced it.
Hope everyone made it to church today?

Les,
It's a Marian devotional, with the Sacred Heart on the rear. Im pretty sure of the inscription, but if you can get a better close up, or just the wording, I can be sure. I love to find Catholic goodies - such a connection!

Very nice find Leslie. Very large piece as well and makes one wonder
how such a piece could be lost.

If our finds could talk what storys we would hear !

Cheers !

From the land of the Bluenose.....would love to have a better photo. This one took 6 tries as it is. My Kodak Easyshare just doesn't do any better. Have put a request in to the big guy in the white beard and red suit! Thanks for the info.

Just write it out and Ill decipher it. As I said I pretty much have an idea. Years of Catholic living has its benefits.

Yeah I've got a Catholic cross that is silver and ivory plus a silver angel pendant with 24 KT gold wings and a small diamond in the center. Got some other religious stuff. Going to have to dig it out and post it one of these days.

"Mary, conceived without sin" is the first part, in French.

"My heart..." I dont know the rest. Ill find out next time I see a priest.

I believe it is a meadllion devotianl to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
