A Piece of Taos History You Can Hold
Some keepsakes carry more than an image. They carry the history of a place.
This vintage Our Lady of Guadalupe 150th Anniversary Medallion commemorates a milestone in the religious heritage of Taos, New Mexico. Featuring a raised image of Our Lady of Guadalupe and a distinctive hand-engraved inscription on the reverse, it is a meaningful collectible for those drawn to Catholic tradition, Southwestern history, and objects with a story.
The reverse reads “150th Anniversary Our Lady of Guadalupe Taos, N. Mex.” Each irregularity in the lettering reflects the character of its hand-engraved inscription, while the aged gold-tone finish and natural patina preserve its vintage appearance.
Unlike an ordinary devotional medal, this piece commemorates a specific historical milestone in the Taos community.
