My understanding is that 'Lagerstroems Silver' is/was the company who issued that medal commemorating the Swedish king and his wife. 9,000 of those made in silver and 1,000 made in gold. It is clearly no coin but a privately issued medal.

As medieval already wrote, it's from a private jeweller and they usually never go for more than the silver content here in Sweden.
But without a book over private medals there is no way to be 100% sure with this one =)
