It could be a trial for a coronation medallion (it looks right for that). Either that, or it could be a trial for a Commonwealth coin. Certainly not a British coin, given he is wearing a crown.

Thanks Peckris.Any idea of the value of something like this?

None at all I'm afraid. Maybe someone else here knows something about them?

I'd agree that it's probably from a coronation medal because he's facing the wrong way for a coin.

Maybe have a look for something similar on ebay or the like to see what they go for.

Definately not Royal Mint IMO, the design crude and not in the style of HP or KG. Lettering rudely done, the bust worse. That would likely have minimal value even to the right buyer.

Sorry to rain on the parade....
