Looks like the legend is mostly legible, but I can't quite make it out on my phone screen. Can you post as much as you can read?

I am seeing a man riding on horseback on one side, and the other... children running to school?

DBM is correct. The description from page 8 of this auction listing

http://www.baldwin.co.uk/media/cms/...20MEDALS.pdf

says

George II, Execution of the Rebels, Bronze Medal, 1746, unsigned, the Duke on horseback, DUKE OF CUMBERLAND, rev a rebel is hanged, MORE REBELS A COMING, 32mm (MI ii 618/289; Woolf 56.4). Very fine. £60-80

The medal pictured in the auction listing is in much better condition than the one pictured above so it's value should be less than the auction estimated value.
