Token/Medal 1898?

Anyone know what this is? I found it in the bottom of a "World coin bin". Paid a $1.00 for it!

I know somebody on here has had to have seen one of these before.....

 

Just checking one last time to see if anyone knows what this is.

 

I don't have specifics but it seems to be some kind of victory medal commemorating the Spanish-American War. I can't find anything on Google which is strange. I think it's pretty cool myself, but I'm a history buff.

 

Yeah I thought thats what it was as well but couldn't find any info on it. I did find out that MAJ General Fitzhugh Lee was the grandson of Henry "Light-Horse Harry" and nephew of Robert E. Lee. I thought that was cool.
I think I got a great deal for a $1.00, just whish I could identify it.

 

Very nice find, indeed. And only for a buck. I would have grabbed it too. My only question is what size cardboard 2x2 is it in?

 

I use this size for quarters, the medal is a litle bigger than a quarter.

 

Thanks. I can't find anything on this medal/token. About the only thing I've discovered is that Fitzhugh Lee was a rather robust guy.

 

Sorry that I cant be of help with what it is, just wanted to say It looks realy good :thumb:
