Any idea re coin

I have coin, edged, with face of our queen as a young woman, but no crown. About the size of a one-pound coin. No date as it is set on a patterned base on a chain. Had it some time but cannot remember it. cheers Penny

Not to worry widget. My cleaner came this morning and asked what I was looking for. She put in Royal Mint and came up straight away. This was made in 1966 and is only worth £5.00. I havn;t stopped laughing since. Perhaps when you have a minute you could check. cheers Penny
