Heavington Valued Member United States 57 Posts	Posted 04/25/2016 7:41 pm It is a medal of Pope Gregory the First, but he is more commonly referred to as Saint Gregory. I can't seem to find that exact medal, is there any chance you can get a better picture of the words underneath his face? You could also wait for a more experienced member.

Dunlop0078 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 04/25/2016 8:30 pm Thanks for the reply. The word on the face side just says "silver". But I will post some clearer pictures of the face side when I get home. Report this Post to the Staff
Numisma Pillar of the Community United States 4963 Posts	Posted 04/25/2016 9:13 pm It's definitely modern medal or at least a modern replica of one. If it's really silver, that would give it some value, though. Edited by Numisma 04/25/2016 9:14 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Bertensgrad Pillar of the Community United States 1192 Posts	Posted 04/26/2016 12:20 am I'm worried about the pitting in the surface. Doesn't that make it likely it was cast? Report this Post to the Staff
aristarchus123 Pillar of the Community United States 1695 Posts	Posted 04/26/2016 06:09 am The Latin suggests the medal commemorates the Sodality of Saint Gregory located in Downside, England. Sodalities are religious groups. Looks like a Catholic medal. Report this Post to the Staff
