Anyone know anything definite about this thing? It appears to be a portrait of Queen Anne (early 18th century in Britain). It measure about 3/4 inch (20mm) at its longest. Reverse as shown is blank. Metal is soft white metal - typical medallion metal from late 18th/early 19th century.

Any thoughts appreciated!

Looking at coronation medals of Queen Anne and when the use of white metal or "pot metal" became widely used, I'm going to say that isn't Queen Anne, but some other notable women. Still maybe it could be a later rendition of Queen Anne where she's thinned up a little to commemorate her coronation 200 years later in 1907 :dontknow:

It is rather poorly made, I think.

Possibly a souvenir token from the QV Diamond Jubilee in 1897?

But then again, I'm an American. So what could I possibly know about it...? ??? :laughing7:
