    Never seen this before, but where the metal is most disturbed on the rim above "OF" it appears as though it might not be gold colored inside the piece. This may simply be due to lighting, but it might otherwise be due to the item being plated rather than solid gold.

    Would you please show the reverse, that might help in identifying
    It appears to be some sort of commemorative medallion and doubt
    very much if it is gold and is certainly not a proof.

    It's neither gold nor proof although it certainly is damaged. Time for you to do some research to support your claim. Good luck. Peace Roy
