    That looks more like a religious medal

    I agree, it looks like a religious item. Maybe from the 16-17th century?

    behind the bust four letters i think is I, C or O N, V on reverse under a magnifying glass looks like a god holding a wreath or something downwards, with a possible V then O, is there anyway to bring out the lettering, like the dates on buffalo nickels?

    You might try taking a rubbing of the letters.
