St. Benedict Medallion History
Each beautiful medallion is 1.5 inches in diameter, contains
one ounce of .999 pure silver and is struck in brilliant uncirculated
(BU) condition for the University by Sunshine Minting in the Silver
Valley of Idaho. The medallion will be encapsulated in acrylic
for protection and presented in a blue gift box with the University's
logo stamped inside (comparable to the American Eagle Proof Silver
Dollar). A Certificate of Authenticity and a brief History of
St. Benedict and Benedictine University will be included with
each order.
 The
obverse side presents a portrait of St. Benedict writing the Benedictine
Rule and the reverse shows the shield of the College/University
with the appropriate dates. These treasured medallions commemorate
the history of Benedictine education in Lisle and should prove
to be a store of value. Silver has appreciated by over 400 percent
during the past five years and many experts now anticipate silver
over $100 per ounce within the next few years.
Proceeds will be used for student scholarships.**
*The first striking of 150 medallions will be delivered in May
2009.
