Yeah, can you describe the medallion a little more. It looks like Washington in the center. I see some wording on at least one of the surounging heads, what is it? Who is it? any marks on the back? Is it white metal with a brass tone? Have you done a magnet test? Painted?
Curious minds want to know.
Pretty cool whatever it is.
Yah, yeh ya, eya. Darn I don't know how to spell yhea. Oh well, yes

Must be British Royal family members (if its British or Canadian) on the medal. Almost looks like profiles from coins of the sides. That thing is huge.
Hey all, thanks for replies. Unfortunately, I don't know much about that medal. However, I can tell you that it reads "Louis Roy/France" on each of the coin-like things. So, I'm assuming that it may be a medal received perhaps at WW1 by a Canadian, maybe even at the battle of Beaumont-Hamel; and they brought it back home with them. As for the guy in the center, the wording is too illegible to read, but I can pick out 'for' and what looks like 'resa.' On the back there is a makers stamp of some sort which looks to be '322,' which is imprinted in a rectangle.
