Perhaps issued for important meetings? The portret looks similair to Louis XIV the sun king. Shown on liard bronzes 1655 as example The diameter is near 60 mm. Report this Post to the Staff

Hopefully some of the experts (which I'm not) can give you some additional information. Member of SPMC, FCCB, ANA and ANS.
