Comment

This medal also exists larger (65mm and 118g).
The reverse usually has the text "EXPOSITION INTERNATIONALE DE L'EST DE LA FRANCE NANCY 1909" on it and the name the medal was given to, although completely blank types exist also and (like the example here),some only have the engraved name and lack the text commemorating the expo.
