The story

Vintage WWII-Era Sterling Silver Catholic Rosary Set – "Leddy" Hallmarked Crucifix with Leather Pouch & Devotional Medals
Description:
This a beautifully preserved piece of mid-20th-century Catholic history.
This vintage rosary set was clearly a deeply cherished personal devotional item, likely carried by a serviceman during the World War II era.

Key Features & Details:

• The Crucifix: Stamped "LEDDY" (manufacturer/jeweler mark) and "STERLING" along with a distinct maker's cross hallmark. It features a finely detailed corpus and "INRI" banner.

• The Rosary Beads: Features robust black/dark beads on a metal chain loop.
The centerpiece medal depicts the Sacred Heart of Jesus on one side and a profile of the Virgin Mary on the reverse.

• Historical "Field Repair":

Adding incredible character and authenticity to this piece, there is an old, tight repair made with a short piece of vintage string holding a section of the chain together.
It beautifully illustrates its real-world use and how much the original owner cared to keep it intact.

• The Leather Pouch & Medals: Comes with its original, heavily weathered brown leather pouch. Attached inside are two classic protective medals:

1. A St. Christopher "Protect Us" Medal — The reverse side is stamped with the poignant military/traveler emergency notice:

"I am a Catholic. In case of an accident kindly notify a priest."
2. A Sacred Heart of Jesus Medal.
