The medal commemorates the Peace Treaty of Nijmegen, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaties_of_Nijmegen Cannot tell which "variety" this is (the photos are somewhat blurry), but have a look here: http://www.noviomagus.nl/Gastredactie/VDZee/Vrede/penningen op de vrede van nijmegen 1687.pdf (see the medals 18, 18a and 19 on p. 17-18 of the PDF file).

yes that is it - thank you Thank you both for ALL the information. Would you happen to know where I could obtain a value for such a medal?
Considering it's over four ounces of silver the medal is worth at least $72. You may get more with bigger/better photos if you list it on eBay.
