    Hey everyone!

    A friend asked me to photo this and post it online to see if anyone here would recognize it. I can make out a couple words on the reverse but not enough really to do a worthwhile Google search. Maybe someone recognizes it?

    Size: about 14mm

    As I stated above, I can't really make out much from the reverse. Here's what I can see:

    "...on earth"
    "those who"
    "against us(?)"
    "into"

    (all of these on the right side of the reverse)

    That is the "Lord's Prayer", can be found on many medallions.

    You know, I was wondering if it was a prayer or hymn. Been a while since someone has forced me to say it...

    Any further ideas on time period, and maybe the image on the obverse?

    My guess would be WWI
