<p>[QUOTE=&quot;all_fakes, post: 110991, member: 55&quot;]The Latin quote is a line from a Eucharistic hymn by St Thomas Aquinas, associated with the Feast of Corpus Christi. Translates as &quot;O saving sacrifice.&quot;</p><p>The design represents a monstrance, or Eucharist chalice, I believe.&nbsp; It may be a commemorative pin from the procession in Rome that is traditionally associated with the Feast of Corpus Christi.</p><p><br /></p><p>from Wikipedia: &quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>The feast is liturgically celebrated on the Thursday after Trinity Sunday...at the end of Holy Mass, there is often a procession of the Blessed Sacrament, generally displayed in a monstrance. The procession is followed by Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. A notable Eucharistic procession is that presided over by the Pope each year in Rome, where it begins at the Archbasilica of St. John Lateran and makes its way to the Basilica of Saint Mary Major, where it concludes with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Or maybe from a first communion, as you say.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
