Old medallion

[HYMBAW]

Digging the site of an old hospital in GR and found the medallion from a meeting of a female fraternal organization known as Degree of Honor.

that is a sweet find!, congrats! Something like that doesn't pop up everyday.
Talithi Cumi is Aramaic for "maid arise". The motto is taken from Mark 5:41 when Jesus raised the little girl.

Coolest thing about this hobby is a guy can find one little thing in the ground, then, before you know it, I am reading/learning stuff I have never heard of, glad you found it. Congrats!

Cool find.

Those finds are neat...the ones like this that we don't recognize when we extract it from the earth.

The research in determining their origin is usually what educates us about its history. Love these kinds of finds.


Nice score.
