Hello,

I need your help guys. I have here a medal of Margaret of Austria. I don't know anything about this medal, can't find any information on the net. Bought this on a flea market a couple of years ago.

I would like to ask anybody who knows about this:
a.) What's this medal for?
b.) This looks like a commemorative medal but is it a period medal? or a modern one?
c.) There's a writing on the back, it looks like German. Do you know what is written there?

Thanks for looking!

It's French, but not clear enough for me to read.
