Description: This is the larger 32mm large Silver cross awarded solely to male recipients. This Cross was created by Pope Leo XIII to celebrate his golden sacerdotal jubilee. It was originally awarded to men and women who had served in, and promoted, the jubilee celebrations.The Cross was initially awarded in two grades, Gold Cross and Silver Cross, and the crosses awarded to men (32-33mm) were larger than the crosses awarded to women (26mm).These awards continued to be awarded by the Pope as a sign of special recognition until October 1898, when the Cross was made a permanent Vatican honour. At this point, the Cross was officially amended to reward clergy and civil citizens for extraordinary service to the Catholic Church and the Roman Pontiff. The size of the crosses was increased to 42-43mm at some point prior to 1908. During this time, a Bronze Cross grade was also introduced, but the Bronze Cross was short-lived and eliminated in 1908 by Pope Pius X.
