when I was in Beijing, I saw a set of commemorative stamps, and a set of medallions, honouring "the ten Marshals of the PLA".
I suspect that you have one of them.
This article names them: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Ma...lic_of_China
If you go to the individual biographies linked there, you'll see that the their uniforms resemble the one on your medallion.
You might be able to pin yours down by the similarity of the effigy, or you might be able to match the characters on yours to the characters in the yext of the articles.

I wouldn't hazard a guess at a value for one item out of a set.

The Chinese translates as "Marshal Lin Biao" who was a major figure in modern Chinese history.

Thank you very much to quick reply. It was good to find the coin:
This is the first coin from the coin set of the 35th Anniversary of the Peoples Republic, from 1984.
