I think that this medal is plated and that the plating is coming off. Unfortunately, as most of us have discovered, without a maker's or designer's mark, medals are often extremely difficult to attribute. Anyone can issue a medal for any reason, without any approval being required, so they are apt to be poorly documented. The subject matter of yours is extremely common too, and there are probably 100s of different ones.
