The front reads:
✠ EIUS IN OBITU NRO PRAE(SENTIA) MUNIAMUR
with U.I.O.G.D. at the bottom.
The figure is St. Benedict of Nursia, shown with:
- a halo,
- a crozier (abbot’s staff) in his left hand,
- and his monastic robes.
The Latin translates as:
“May we be strengthened by his presence at the hour of our death.”
This is one of the traditional prayers associated with St. Benedict.
The back:
- The cross in the center with the letters C S P B stands for Crux Sancti Patris Benedicti (“The Cross of Our Holy Father Benedict”).
- Around the edge is the Latin inscription beginning “Eius in obitu nostro praesentia muniamur”, which means “May we be strengthened by his presence at the hour of our death.”
- The letters around the cross are abbreviations of a prayer asking for protection from evil.
