    Thanks Mat!
    There are similar but non exactly like this.
    It basically looks like one of these emblems.
    I think it is in too good condition to be old.

    Looks like someone made a mold and then poured a bad porous casting.

    After some research, these are called religious medallions and have been made and used from 14th - 18th century in Croatia by benedictine order.
    Some are being made today, but they look different
