Summary
A bronze medal with a tab with a hole for hanging at the top. On one side is a crown, with the word 'Coronation' above and the date '1902' below. On the other side are the words 'Barratt And Co's Sweets Are Pure' and two heads, presumably those of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, badly obscured by a black deposit from adhesive tape which formerly secured the medal to a piece of card.
