This medal (or medal fob) is a souvenir of a 1915 meeting of the Great Council (state governing body) of the Pennsylvania Improved Order of Red Men (IORM) in DuBois, Pennsylvania.  It appears to have served as the fob (or drop) on an event badge.  The design includes a very high-relief (three-dimensional) bust of Great Sachem (head of the state IORM) Charles E. Pass, with his 'signature' and the words
GREAT SACHEM
beneath the bust and, along the rim, the words
GREAT COUNCIL OF PENNA. DU BOIS, PA. G. S. D. 424
