White metal. 33.5mm. 16.71g. Plain edge. Unsigned. This scarce-to-rare Leroux medal commemorates the passage of the Quebec Jesuits Estate Act, which, according to the Canadian Encylopedia, “provided a monetary settlement: the Jesuits would receive $160 000 and surrender all claims; $140 000 would go to U Laval and $100 000 to selected dioceses.”
The Michael Joffre example realized $390 in April 2022 and GBA sold a comparable representative in May 2023 for $360.
