Found this coin in a box of donated items. Came in a small blue velvet carrier. I think it says Austria on it, but who knows. Can anyone identify it and give some history? Worth? Thanks!

I'm seeing it has some relation to Sigismund, but beyond that, no matches

Welcome!
The town of Hall-in-Tirol, Austria received the right of coinage in 1477. It proudly holds the honor of the first place to have coined a taler coin (the precursor of the dollar), in 1486: "Erste Talerprägestätte." This is a 1977 commemorative medal, taking the style of a period coin, marking the 500th anniversary of Hall-in-Tirol's coinage history.

Thank you! I started to find similar info but I have yet to find the same coin/ medal anywhere on google. It appears to be silver as it's tarnishing just like my silver dollars. I don't expect it to be worth more than a few dollars but it would be cool to find it's real value.
