Can anyone identify this Russia Czarist medal/token?



I have had this item mixed in with coins since the 1960's.

Diameter 27mm, weight 3.66gm, brass?

No clue. The top legend (starting at the left star) says ~ "For the women and ????" - can't make out the 3rd & 4th letters from the right star and don't know russian enough (at all!) to guess.

The lower portion I really don't know about "УНРАШЕНIЕ".. Ukrainian has an I like the second to last letter, and I'm pretty sure Russia used it too before the 1918 reforms.. bah.. let's just wait for someone who knows russian beyond the phrase book

Any possibilities of a larger image of the front? I can read "for the women" but not the last word and the word on the bottom.

Of course I have no clue, but I am impressed with Spoon for getting as far as he has.

Man, I was still awake that late last night?!

Hmm.. found my pocket dictionary, but that's no help I'm afraid. Googling unrashenie in cyrillic gets zero results, chopping it back to УНРАШЕН (removing conjugation) gets a few results, but interestingly enough, they're all for hits on that word in old books, pre-reform, pre-commie. So I guess that's an obsolete term whatever it is, or else something specific to and lost in the czarist era.
