✅ SOLVED Religious Pendant. Catholic? Jesuit? Orthodox? Latin Inscription? Help Please!

[Subterranean]

Hi fellow T-Netters.

I found this just outside of the tot lot at a local park. It rang up a strong 77 on the ATPro, in the silver range for something this light in weight. It is smaller than a dime. I have no idea what kind of metal it is as it is not marked for content.

It bears a likeness of Jesus and is covered in Latin writing only. Can anyone enlighten me as to the translation of the inscription and what organization it may be related to?

Thanks and happy hunting to all.

that's is a St Benedict medal * -- the medal was allowed to be made to fund the Italian mountain top monastery that was founded by St Benedict that was held by Nazi forces in WW2 and that was sadly bombed to bits in WW2 in a effort to remove them
