Many thanks for that, Bill. With your guidance, I put the same photo into Google Images, which now has an excellent translation function. It confirms your suggestion that the language is Thai - ครบ ๒๕๐๐ป, which renders as "completed 2500 years - right timing for the Buddha.
Better - isolating and enhancing the temple image with Photoshop, and putting that and the Thai text into Google Images "find source," led to this: www.surepra.com/show/1064307. Clearly the same medallion, apparently made of gold-plated copper alloy (you're right again!) and - in much better condition than mine - worth all of US$4. So I can give to it a young person without concern.
Thanks again!
