Hi all, please help to identify this sign or token.

Best regards, Olle

Hi,

for me it's not german.

Could you make a transcription of the inscription?

I can recognize well all charachters as well…
Some words looks as Polish, yes

Best regards, Olle

 Beat me to it. I see LAT on there, and the word before it looks 

like TRZYSTA and somewhere I looked said that is Polish. 

 Next line may be W JERVZALEM perhaps. 

I found this >

 which is shown some way down the page. Not the same, but similar.

Yes, it is similar to this one.

Thank you very much

Best regards, Olle

Thanks.

 That picture I found has this lettering, 

which at the moment I have not compared to yours …

 Quickly made this, which all seem the same, except near the end >

 THREE HUNDRED YEARS IN JERUSALEM | FIVE HUNDRED IN CAROGROD |

I WAS AN ALL-POWERFUL LADY ON EARTH AND WATER |

FIVE HUNDRED AT THE BEŁZ CASTLE | I WAS A GUARD |

FIVE HUNDRED JASNA GÓRA | HONOR-ME THE QUEEN OF HEAVEN | 1882
Carogrod, city of kings. what's the city they refer? Why 500 years there… 

Best regards, Olle

Its in reference to a painting of Mary that travelled through different means and dowries the item you hold states its travels. The portrait ended up in Poland.  Somebody has put a full description of the portraits travels on facebook your medal/token depicts the painting and the writing as a brief list of its supposed history/travels. For some reason I can't post a link to the page it gives the full text instead.

 

Facebook page is for “The National Shrine and Parish of the Divine Mercy Philippines” its under the title of Saint of the Day (Our Lady Of Czestochowa) and the post was listed back on 26th August 2021

 

Answers your question about the why 500 years.

Yes, this is clear now.
300 years in Jerusalem, 500 years in Constantinople, etc. 
The history of moving of the Holy Icon of Our Lady.
Thank you.

Best regards, Olle
