An "unvaluable" token
An item of value beyond Earth...
There is an unending number of different non-monetary items around the World. Some are named tokens, like the one shown here. Some are cameos, medals or, metallic badges. Many, might have money value, yet others would represent a certain kind of collectible, perhaps unappraised but still cherished with passion.
This beautiful token was a gift I received almost ten years ago from a kind fellow of a socially supportive group, and they represent and defend the poor, the families, the core values of our society. They are men who became agents of charity. Thus, this wonderful token is of "higher value" beyond the boundaries of mankind.
This token represents a level of brotherhood among men of charity. It is given as a passage to understanding total unselfishness when facing adversity and assisting others. The great man who gave me this beautiful token, explained its spiritual value and its meaning among the ones who have received it. Yet, he told me he could not reveal the intricate processes of being a holder of such honor.
Nicely made of brass, the token brings the motto of charity, fraternity and unity surrounding the consecrated "chalice" on the obverse and the "Cross" surrounded by the ten stops (dots) of prayer on the reverse.
A token given for eternal blessings.
In my own words.
