It seems like a normal medal for the National Diet like something from a gift shop. Is there anything on the reverse or edge?

Yes it's the House of Representatives Japan and what I found on another site Mount Fuji underneath is some Japanese writing. These are 4 symbols, which of course I can't read.
I bought it from a manor house of a Lord with some other stuff I'm listing inkwells etc. so I thought it may have some political relevance
It is quite heavy and in a very nice box, which seems more like an award than a gift shop buy, but I'm no expert. Do you need more photos.
Nothing along edge it's plain

Sure thing. I can read it and it may shed some more light to its origin.
