Leone XIII

Here is one of my Papal Medals: Leone XIII Year VIII (1885) for the Opening of the Vatican's Secret Archives. Bronze, 43.5 mm, 40 g, by Bianchi. Quite rare, only 500 struck in Bronze (1500 in Silver).

Interesting that they made less bronze than silver. Love that warm brown color. Peace Roy
