Help Identify items from a lady's estate

Hi coin whizzes,
I'm looking for some good info on the King George III coin it is dated 1790, is very thin, has a bend off center, and a hole atop. appears to be bronze colored. don't think its silver. What is a fair trading price for this specimen? Twenty bucks? less? more? By the way it was found in an estate that i am settling here in Texas.
below is a photo of a pin back medal that says "Quinque Juncta in Uno" 1916. Any help from militaria and medal people would likewise be most appreciated.

Bottom Badge:

(Tria juncta in uno) Three joined in one (L.)
Motto of the Order of the Bath. A modified Star of the Bath with the motto and three crowns serves as the star ("pip") rank badge in most of the British Army.
Brigade of Guards (i.e. Grenadier Guards, Coldstream Guards, Scots Guards). Although the Brigade was augmented in 1900 by the Irish Guards, and in 1915 by the Welsh Guards, the Brigade motto and badge was not modified to Quinque juncta in uno until 1949. This was modified again in 1959 to encompass the whole Household Brigade (i.e. including the Life Guards and Royal Horse Guards) as Septem juncta in uno.

Thanks. Now how about the KGIII, if that is a correct ID? Thanks all.
