This piece is as big as a half dollar. Has a reeded edge both sides. Writing all around the edge both sides.Might be French. Looks like the date is in roman numerals underneath the side that has the lady getting crowned by an angel.( reminds me of how my ex wife thought she should be treated.)..... Has the same kind of elegant look as a Castorland medal. Anybody seen this piece? Also, I have posted some other interesting coins and whatnot at my website:jeff pitts-relichunter.com

Looks like a coronation medal for Queen Charlotte of England (wife of King George III)- this is the silver version. Is yours silver?

I'm guessing 'arelichunter' found a bronze medallion; the silver and gold differ slightly in that the 'VM' near the angle are on the left side of the crown, whereas on the subject medallion the 'V' and 'M' straddle the crown.
