A picture Pope Pius XII (Pios XII)
IT READS ...
"ANNUS SANCTUS MXML"
Latin meaning ... Holy Year 1950
"Most holy Father"
"Mr. and Mrs. Dan F. Scherrer Jr. and Family humbly prostrate at the feet of your holiness beg the Apostolic Blessing and a Plenary Indulgence to be gained at the hour of death, on condition that, being truly sorry for their sins, but unable to confess them and to receive the holy viaticum they shall at least invoke with their lips or heart the holy name of Jesus"
It is then signed (help here is needed to read the cursive Latin?) and dated at the Vatican?
Then signed "Joseph Migone Archiepiscopus Nicomedien" and Cold Stamped Trés Saint P ére Le pére
FOR A ITALIAN VERSION same year, see ...

The Venerable Pope Pius XII (Latin: Pius PP. XII; Italian: Pio XII), born Eugenio Maria Giuseppe Giovanni Pacelli (2 March 1876 – 9 October 1958), reigned as Pope, head of the Catholic Church and sovereign of Vatican City State, from 2 March 1939 until his death in 1958.
I just got off the phone with Dan F. Scherrer III.
Now how cool is that.
Bought yesterday, researched yesterday, posted yesterday, talk to the son today!
Wow! That is VERY cool!!!
Small, small world! Very cool.
He said he didn't need it as he has his grandfathers, but wanted to hear how I cam by it. We had a good visit and talked genealogies and he may have a relative that hold a key to a closed door on my family tree. Small world ...
Tiki and I found that out last night as well.
Yes.... very small world!!
