St Rocco Medal
A die-cast St Rocco medal — Saint Roch — supplied wholesale to parishes, Italian-American communities, religious-goods stores, and online resellers. Struck in Italy from durable zamak alloy and finished in an antiqued silver-tone, each piece carries the inscription “St Rocco,” with sharp relief on both faces and a soldered jump ring ready for a chain, cord, rosary, or keyring. Each medal measures 22 × 16 mm (about ⅞ × ⅝ inch), and the oxidised finish resists tarnish and keeps the engraving legible through years of daily wear. Medals are supplied in packs of 10, with volume pricing on larger quantities and a low minimum order.
St Roch was a fourteenth-century pilgrim from Montpellier who cared for plague victims in Italy and healed many before falling ill himself; in the forest a dog brought him bread each day and licked his wounds until he recovered. He is the patron against plague, epidemics, and contagious disease, of the sick, and famously of dogs. The medal shows him as a pilgrim revealing the wound on his thigh, with his faithful dog at his side.
For buyers, the medal has a devoted, distinctive audience: the many Italian-American parishes that keep the San Rocco feast, devotion against illness and in times of epidemic, gifts for the sick and recovering, pet blessings and dog owners, and steady stock around his August 16 feast. The compact oval suits display cards, blister packs, and counter merchandising, and pairs naturally with chains or cord stocked alongside it.
