Unidentified gold medal

This is 24K and my best guess is that it’s a religious medal of no numismatic value. But if anyone knows any better, please chime in before I scrap it!

  • The scene appears to be St. Christopher with the infant Christ on his back, but it definitely just seems to be in the religious realm and not numismatic in any way.

    St. Christopher is on one side so it's religious connection is there.
