Found a inauguration pin/ medal?

[eu4ia]

Found this this today in an easement to some rail road tracks. It was close to where an old train depot sat. 4" deep 11-43 with the etrac. Shows the date Jan 11 1897.

Interesting, I found one many years ago in VA. Mine's a bit different and not in very good shape though.
