Bottom Arm: The Miraculous Medal showing the Virgin Mary.

The J, H, S Letters

The letters stamped between the bottom arms (J, H, and S) represent IHS (with the 'I' stylized as a 'J'). This is a traditional Christogram derived from the first three letters of the name "Jesus" in Greek (IHΣOΥΣ). In Latin tradition, it is also frequently interpreted as an abbreviation for Jesus Hominum Salvator, meaning "Jesus, Savior of Mankind"
