It is a 60 year anniv. celebration of quenn victoria 1837-1897.

Yes it is a jubilee medal. 1897 was Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee (as 1887 had been her Golden Jubilee).

Just saw coin yearbook 2006 that the diameter of the medal are 56 and 21 mm but the one I posted is 38.6 near to the size of 1951 crown and also measured it by a ruler near to 39mm smooth edge.

Those are the sizes of the official medal issued by the Royal Mint. What you have is an unofficial medal, of which there are many types and no standard size.
