The Miraculous Medal, also known as the Medal of Our Lady of Grace, is a devotional medal, the design of which was originated by Saint Catherine Laboure following her apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The front side depicts Mary standing upon the globe, as the Queen of Heaven and Earth, as her feet crush the serpent representing Satan. It is meant to reference the dogma of the Immaculate Conception. The back refers to Mary's initial and the twelve stars represent the apostles, who also represent the Church.
