Mystery Asian coin/medal - Can you ID it?

[Aethelred]

Hi there,

 

I ran across this mystery coin in a collection that I bought and I was hoping that one of you would be kind enough to share your wisdom with me. This coin/medal is 9.9g and 29mm in diameter.

 

On the obverse there is a peacock above what looks like a Swiss cross, both of which are enclosed by a wreath. The reverse has inscriptions that to my eye looks Korean, but I could be way off on that. This coin has a plain edge.

 

Any information would be more than I currently have and would be greatly appreciated.

 

Many thanks,

Michael
