Does anyone recognize this medal just based on the hair, forehead, eyes, and nose?

I bought a token die trial struck in lead which came with a little extra bonus on the reverse which intrigued me.



Should be uniface but it's not image



So does this mug struck around the late 1890's ring any bells with anyone image

    But seriously, folks. I do not see a face, just some random lines.

    Way too easy. It is an 1898 inauguration medal of Queen Wilhelmina (Netherlands).

    ... or possibly an 1897 Queen Victoria? I just don't know.
