Irish 'Saoirse Creidim' Medal
The medal was issued in 1929 by the Catholic Emancipation Centenary Committee as the official badge of the centenary celebrations. The badge celebrates 100 years since the 1829 Act allowed Irish Catholics to practice their faith. The medal shows the Dublin Freedom Bell along with Irish text 'Saoirse Creidim', which translates as 'Freedom to Believe'. The official badge came with either a pin fitting for ladies or with a buttonhole stud fitting for the gents (the buttonhole badge is much rarer).
3 x 2.9cm approx.
