    I have no idea where I got this, curious if any of you have some insight on what something like this would be worth, I have attached 2 pictures.

    It's in pretty bad condition. I have several hundred medals in my collection, but personally, I wouldn't want this for any price. You might try to contact Hedley Betts at www.medalsoftheworld.com . He is very knowledgeable about British medals.

    Whatever someone will pay for it. ;)

    Seriously, though: not very much in that condition, but it's got a neat design. Was pretty apparently someone's "pocket piece" for a while. It could still be used as such today.
