1992 Documented reliquary theca with relic of the Blessed Pope Benedict XI

Round yellow-metal glass-fronted reliquary theca housing the second-class ex indumentis (of the clothes) relic of the Blessed Pope Benedict XI. The relic is affixed to a blue silk ground decorated by silver wire and identified in Latin on a typeset cedula label as B. Benedicti XI Pap. O.P. (Blessed Pope Benedict XI, Dominican).  On the back, under a protective cap, the theca is secured with a seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of the Dominican Order. The relic is accompanied by the original matching authentics document issued and sealed in 1990 by the Postulator General of the Order responsible for the Causes of Canonization. 

Blessed Pope Benedict XI (†1304) was head of the Catholic Church and ruler of the Papal States from 1303 to 1304. He entered the Order of Preachers and studied at Venice and Milan before becoming a teacher in Venice and in other Dominican houses. He served two terms as Provincial Prior of Lombardy, before being elected Master of the Order in 1296. Two years later he was made cardinal. He was appointed Bishop of Ostia, and served as papal legate first to Hungary, and then to France. He was with Pope Boniface VIII when Boniface was attacked by French forces at Anagni. He was beatified by Pope Clement XII in 1736 and his feast day is celebrated on July 7.
