It's listed in British Historical Medals, so I think it can at least be called a medallion or medalet. My copy of the book has vanished since I moved house but I do know that this will be in the range of BHM# 1151 or 2.

I did try Vern's website earlier for the number. I've had a great deal of difficulty accessing it lately, but napoleonicmedals.org is the go to site for the period in question.
And my memory is badly failing.

Now I've had a chance to check, the memory's not too bad. Right Queen, but the wrong end of her life. The BHM# 1150's are for the death of Caroline.

At the risk of repeating myself I do urge collectors to bookmark
napoleonicmedals.org
it's simply one of the finest resources available.

Thanks for the info!

@alganbagerap, links not working for me. When I go to napoleonicmedals.org it requests a login?)

My only advice,kep trying. I had no luck earlier today, then Philadelphian managed to get through. I have been on the site since, but it's patchy.
