I found one exactly like this on Worthpoint but I don't have subscription to know where it sold or for how much. I'd guess it came after the fire of 2007 and during the subsequent restoration of the ship.

The masts (3) were changed much earlier during trips to Australia and could be from that also as the tall masts were no longer needed per the above wikipedia article.
It's a neat medallion.

As it states on one side..That was a turnaround at least..the artifact itself is old in one definite way, even though it was a relatively recent commemorative piece. I never knew the cutty-sark was still around, either!...
