✅ SOLVED Patriotic Medal ? Political campaign medallion ???

[Wild Colonial Boy]

Practicing social distancing, was at a remote colonial celler hole and dug this



First I thought it might be coin,
then maybe a late 19th cen. art nouveau furniture attachment, as I could see what appeared to be ladies profile



I slowly removed the dirt, Wow I got a big surprise had no idea it had the eagle thing going on



Maybe Patriotic Medal ? Political campaign medallion

who's your man?



any help appreciated
no sign of attachment, back seems flat, and void of detail

Amergin, that is a neat find and good job on removing the dirt Not sure what/who it is - but will Google. One thing though, there doesn't appear to be a hole to run a chain through, so it can be worn around the neck.

That was my first thought...

The state and county where found would ease the research burden considerably.

Otherwise were just shooting from the hip...

We’ve seen these... it’s Napoleon II, as portrayed by actress Sarah Bernhardt, explained by PBK here: http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/what/15203-two-buttons-medal-can-you-id.html

Thank You so much this great

Resolved

is a c. 1900-05 dress button depicting Napoleon II as played by the famed actress Sarah Bernhardt in Edmond Rostand's tragedy L'Aiglon, based on the life of the young emperor, who died at 21.
