Usually in a Catholic medal, the most common symbol depicted is the Christian cross. One can also find pictures of Jesus often on such medals. Such medals are also often metal.

What is a 4 way medal?

A 4-way medal is a ROman Catholic medal shaped like a cross that incorporates images from four popular Catholic medals: 1. The scapular medal which for many replaces the brown wool scapular; 2. The Miraculous Medal, often called the Medal of the Immaculate Conception; 3. The St. Joseph Medal, honoring Jesus' foster father; 4. The St. Christoper Medal, often worn by travelers. Thus a person wearing such a medal can reap the benefits of wearing those four medals without having a rattling, heavy bunch of hardware about his or her neck. I have seen these medals which also have a crucifix in the center, making a image brought into the mix. On the back is usually a statement: I am a Catholic, please call a priest. This tries to ensure if the wearer is in an accident or hospitalized, he or she will have the benefit of a Catholic priest on hand at the moment of death. I hope this information is of use to you. God bless!
