The Project

Spiritual Armor for the Faithful

Welcome to the Medal Restoration Project—a specialized initiative dedicated to reviving the historic beauty, deep symbolic relief, and theological purity of traditional Catholic sacramentals. Together, this definitive collection forms The Five Shields of the Faithful: a complete treasury of spiritual defense meticulously restored from the ground up, freeing these sacred designs from modern decay and returning them to their authentic, original integrity.

At the foundation of this project are the primary protective sacramentals given to mankind. Two of these absolute weapons of spiritual warfare were delivered directly from Heaven: the Miraculous Medal given by the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the Holy Face Medal requested by Our Lord Jesus Christ. To these heaven-sent gifts, we have added the original, traditional version of the St. Benedict Medal—the exact historical layout explicitly backed by papal approval and strictly relied upon by exorcists for centuries for its unmatched efficacy in driving back the forces of darkness.

Unlike common modern reproductions that rely on localized vernacular languages, every sacramental in this collection utilizes strict, immutable Latin inscriptions. We have preserved these timeless inscriptions not only to honor the universal language of the Church, but because Latin is a sacred, consecrated language—venerated by centuries of saints and explicitly feared and hated by demonic forces. To bring this holy trio into a complete defensive armor set, we have engineered two original custom shields: the Two Hearts Medal and the St. Michael Medal, which features the Archangel’s defensive shield and bears the binding battle cry of Pope Leo XIII’s prayer, "Defend Us in Battle," in commanding Latin.

The difference in structural manufacturing quality is instantly clear. Built for generations of active wear, each piece features a solid surgical steel core (316L) that is completely tarnish-free and hypoallergenic. Finished with a premium, heavy-gauge plating of 18K Gold and Platinum, these sacramentals are 60% larger than typical commercial medals, offering a substantial physical weight and crisp, deep-relief details that catch the ambient light brilliantly. To fully understand the profound theological history of each sacramental, our fine-art restoration process, and to see side-by-side comparisons exposing the flaws of modern corrupted replicas, we invite you to click the links in our navigation menu to visit the dedicated page for each individual medal.

Because our custom minting runs require intensive precision, structural tracking, and heavy-gauge precious metal plating, total quantities for this exclusive set are strictly limited. Secure this authentic spiritual armor for yourself and your family by visiting our Order Page to reserve your medals today before our current vault inventory is completely exhausted.

Uncompromising Craftsmanship

Military-Grade Durability. Sovereign Precious Metals.

The Core: 316L Surgical Stainless Steel

An Indestructible Foundation: Every shield begins its life forged from premium, marine-grade 316L surgical stainless steel. Chosen specifically for its extreme tensile strength and structural permanence, this elite alloy serves as a defensive armor that will never warp, dent, or crack under daily wear, resisting corrosion even in the harshest environments.

Hypoallergenic & Low-Maintenance: Unlike cheap alloy reproductions that utilize nickel or brass base metals—which frequently green the skin, trigger severe allergic contact dermatitis, or degrade into toxic oxides—our 316L surgical steel core is entirely 100% hypoallergenic, bio-compatible, and safe for even the most sensitive skin types. It requires no specialized polishing to retain its structural integrity.

The Shield: Multi-Layer Electroplating

Heavy 2-Micron Architecture: While mass-market jewelry relies on cheap flash-plating that rubs off within weeks, our medals undergo computer-controlled DC electroplating to fuse a dense, completely uniform 2-micron layer of precious metal directly to the high-tensile 316L core.

The 18KP White Gold Formula: For our white gold execution, the 18K gold base (75% pure gold) is meticulously cleaned and mirror-polished. We then apply a critical micro-thin Palladium barrier layer to ensure perfect atomic adhesion. Finally, a massive 1.75-micron topcoat of pure, bright Rhodium is bonded over the palladium. As the whitest and most reflective precious metal on earth, this advanced rhodium shield yields a cool, mirror-white luster that is completely tarnish-free, highly scratch-resistant, and visually indistinguishable from solid platinum.

The Scale: Grand Presence & Definitive Dimensions: A true sacred sacramental should never be reduced to an ambiguous, microscopic trinket hidden away from sight. To ensure our wearers are fully informed, our fine-arts studio casts these shields with an intentional, commanding weight that is roughly 60% larger and heavier than standard mass-market commercial strikes. This structural increase provides a tangible, anchoring physical presence against the chest, allowing for unprecedented sculptural depth and absolute typographic legibility of the traditional Latin formulas. Review the exact engineering measurements below to visualize the uncompromising scale of your selection.

Disposing of the False Medals

Purifying and Returning Corrupted Symbols to the Earth

The Mandate of Reverence: Discovering that a collection of sacramentals—whether a Miraculous Medal, a Saint Benedict medal, or a Holy Face medal—bears systematic occult or Freemasonic subversions presents an immediate spiritual crossroad. A foundational rule governs the soul's action here: never throw a sacramental item into the common trash, regardless of whether it is a false reproduction or whether it was formally blessed. Even when a strike has been structurally compromised by enemies of the Church or oblivious manufacturers, it frequently retains recognizable sacred depictions, such as the silhouette of Our Lady or the Holy Name of Christ. Allowing images of our Savior and His Mother to be commingled with domestic refuse and landfill waste constitutes a profound act of objective irreverence. Unblessed corrupted items must be permanently removed from circulation so they cannot be found by others, while items that have received a priest’s formal blessing must be treated according to strict canonical custom.

The Process of Dissolution: Traditional Catholic discipline, anchored in the mandates of Canon 1171 of the Code of Canon Law, dictates that sacred objects must be treated reverently and are not to be pressed into profane or inappropriate use. A physical object permanently loses its priestly blessing and dedicated status only when its structural form is fundamentally broken or altered beyond recognition, returning it to the natural elements. To properly dispose of a base-metal false medal, the recommended action is to dig a hole directly into the ground—ideally in an isolated, reverent space where footprints do not routinely tread, or on consecrated church grounds—and bury the medal whole. By committing the metal back to the earth, the false geometry is buried forever, preventing its corrupted symbols from continuing to propagate their covert agenda above ground.

Reclaiming Precious Metals: For high-end false reproductions forged from precious materials like sterling silver or solid 18K gold, a different path of purification is available. Rather than burying valuable resources, these items should be subjected to intense heat and completely melted down. The act of liquefaction instantly shatters the compromised geometry, entirely dissolving the physical identity of the medal and automatically stripping away any priestly blessing it once carried. Once the metal has been reduced back to an amorphous, purified raw material, it is entirely cleansed of its subverted shapes and can be safely reclaimed to forge authentic, uncompromised spiritual armor or new, pristine items of jewelry.
