Hello and welcome to Numista!

Not a coin. A medal commemorating the founding of Lübeck Germany. Made in 1993.

Thank You for the answer 🤗

On the edge is written 1969, does that change anything?

Well…it may mean that it's a different medal than the one linked (which states it has a smooth edge) or the one in the catalog has some wrong information about it. Is yours 10.1 g, 28 mm?

1993 - 1143 = 850. 1969 - 1143 = 826 which seems silly to celebrate.

Is there a mistake in the catalogued one? The edge is inscribed VEREINIGTE DEUTSCHE METALWERKE A. G. 1969, maybe the person that entered the one in numista missed this part and date should be corrected with this info added. By the way, mine is bronze as well just like the illustrated one in this post
