Yeap, I've had a variant of that medallion, pretty cool example of an early souvenir. Believe it or not yours looks in above average condition for a dug example, the metals in these are fairly low quality.

That copper ring thing No idea....

Admiral Vernon buttons are found on this side of the pond also,he was quite popular in his day.Most old colonial towns have a Vernon St. I don't know if this true but Mount Vernon may have been named after him.
