Collecting small souvenirs served as tangible proof of their journeys. Recognizing this trend, the Vatican saw an opportunity: medals and coins could serve not only as mementos of a pilgrimage but also as instruments for promoting the Church&#8217;s message and values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In response, the Vatican established a formal program adopted by successive popes. Medals were issued to commemorate significant events\u2014such as papal elections or Jubilee years\u2014as well as to illustrate key biblical themes, including the baptism of Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, these medallions continue to be available to the faithful. They serve as objects of devotion, reflections of prayer and faith, and enduring reminders of the Church\u2019s spiritual and historical legacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Medallions donated by the sisters of
