Queen Elizabeth Coin

[Steven M]

I have this coin that was given to my mother in 1961 by the Queen mother, I was just wondering if anyone knows anything about it?

The front simply says Elizabeth - Queen Mother

The back says "Lickey Grange School, Opened By H.M Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother, November 2nd 1961"

Its a large coin weighing around 70grams.

if anyone knows anything, it would be greatly appreciated

It's actually not a coin, but a commemorative medallion, of a type which have been produced for such occasions since the 19th Century. I don't imagine very many were produced (or at least 'reverse engraved' with that particular inscription) so in that sense it is probably quite rare. However, by the same token, there wouldn't be many collectors for it either, so its value is probably modest.
