It is an old medallion.

 

Yes, I agree. Since it was imitating a late victorian gold coin, it appears to be gilt.

 

There appears to be some type of writing under the reverse. Looks Indian. Maybe its from the Indian British empire? I don't think its any kind of immiation. Its all one piece. Not a fake coin molded into jewelry

 

its a medal worn on a coat type of thing

Where is the Indian writing??? I don't see it.

 

On the back, under the dragon.

On the back, under the dragon.

=F=L=

 

Roughly, that translates to: I'm not the dragon, I am the walrus goo goo gee joob goo goo gee joob. :devil:

 

Seriously, if it's India Empire it doesn't seem like good public relations. Asian countries usually have happy thoughts about dragons-sacred, good luck, power, invincibility etc.

 

Paul is dead

 

Nothing equals F equals L equals nothing. It means one who starts with nothing ends up with nothing if they don't put anything substantial in between.
