Shown above right is a medal depicting Jesus's face from the Shroud of Turin, which was the inspiration of a Sister Maria Pierina (d. 1945) who claimed she was so urged by the Virgin Mary and Jesus himself. The alleged visionary claimed that after the first medals were cast the "Evil Spirit" beat her savagely. (Almost ¾" dia.; produced by Holy Face Association, Montreal, Canada.)
