Hello everyone,
this trailer looks like fakes, the material is about tin (Sn).
What is shown on the reverse?
Avers: Saint Anthony Paduánský (Antonio di Padova).
Thank you.

Not a Falsum, ist real original.

Such medaillons from the 19. century were often made from tin (SN).

At the backside you find the "Leidenswerkzeuge Jesu" lat. arma christi ;this means objects wich are mentioned in the gospel about jesus death, like the several instruments of torture (e.g. the column where he was castigated in the middle, a jug with water an one with wine, his cloth, the dice, the ladder with wich he was took from the cross, the cock who cried three times and so on). In the middle the face of jesus on the drapery of veronica. Over the scene a pigeon as a symbol for the holy ghost.
Gut Fund!   :engel:

ANTE ROMAM TREVERIS STETIT ANNIS MILLE TRECENTIS
PERSTET ET AETERNA PACE FRUATUR. AMEN.
