Medals- Queen Anne

I found a Queen Anne medal that is silver and about the size of a shilling...perhaps alittle larger and it is from 1707. I thought it was interesting and bought it. While I don't think it is that rare, I have not seen one before but I haven't really gone out of my way to look either. If it were a shilling, it would grade in the ef range. Any thoughts as to what this may be worth?

    The obverse features a nice crowned portrait of Queen Anne. The reverse features a crowned lion on the left and a unicorn on the right with the date 1707 in Roman Numerals to the right of the unicorn and above the Union Jack shield. There a a crown on the upper portion of the coin with a wreath. Within the wreath is the typical Irish harp, lions for both England and Scotland and the Arms of France. It is a thin silver medal and the overall look is attractive.

    BTW, I came across a similar item for George I except it does not have a date.
