Great Britain, Protestant medal against the Declaration of Indulgence (James II) of 1688. Cast Silver, 57.8mm [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
That "ME" is a really compressed monogram of LIMAE, or Lima. Your coin is from Peru.
Definitely the 5 mark coins. No 3 mark coins were minted with that "small eagle" type reverse.
I've never seen that movie, but the coin sure looks to me like the Wilhelm I 5 mark of 1874-1876. If I am right, it obviously does not fit for...

Nice wildman! I don't think what you have is a double die or double strike; these coins are commonly struck from recut dies, dies that have been...
