The inscription is strange - 150 years Ludwig van Beethoven? He died in 1827, so the piece commemorates the 150th anniversary of his death ... On the side you see his hands, with the text "The Hands of the Great Classic(al Composer) of Music". The 102 will be a serial number. Judging from the "color" of the medal in those photos, I would assume it is brass, but then the "1000" would not make any sense. Sorry, cannot really help much here ...

Possibly number 102 of 1000 issued?
