Jedi Credit

Jedi Credits, Jedi Medallions, or Jedcreds were decorative tokens unique to Old Republic Corellian Jedi. They were awarded when a Jedi Knight was elevated to Jedi Master; they would be given to the Jedi's former Master, and a dozen or so of his close friends, family, and students.

The Jedi Thame Cerulian was given a Jedi Credit when he became a Jedi Knight, and he put it inside his copy of the Jedi training manual The Jedi Path, for safe-keeping.

Corran Horn's father, Valin Horn, gave him a Jedi Credit which belonged to his grandfather, Nejaa Halcyon, whose face was on it. Initially unaware of his Jedi heritage, Horn wore it around his neck on a gold chain, and Mirax Terrik identified it as a "Jedcred" when she first saw it. Horn later gave it to Mirax as a gift when he proposed to her. The credit was delivered to Horn as a warning when his wife was abducted by the Jensaarai in 11 ABY. Horn succeeded in eventually freeing his wife, and the credit remained in the family as an heirloom.
