Looks more like a medal... and by its striking style it looks like one from the early 1900s.

G'day, it's some form of commemorative medallion:
GLADSTONE was Prime Minister of the U.K.
"William Ewart Gladstone (29 December 1809 - 19 May 1898) was a British Liberal Party statesman and four times Prime Minister of the United Kingdom (1868-74, 1880-85, 1886 and 1892-94). He was also Chancellor of the Exchequer and a champion of the Home Rule Bill which would have established self-government in Ireland. ..." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Willia...rt_Gladstone

"Charles Stewart Parnell[1] (27 June 1846 - 6 October 1891) was an Irish Protestant landowner, nationalist political leader, land reform agitator, Home Rule MP in the Parliament of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and founder and leader of the Irish Parliamentary Party. He was one of the most important figures in 19th century Ireland and Great Britain and described by Prime Minister William Gladstone as the most remarkable person he had ever met. ..." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charle...wart_Parnell
