It could be a watch fob or charm, made to Commemorate the Great War.

it is very similar to the Royal Army Temperance Association ones. 

more or less the same design but different inscriptions. possibly .925 sterling silver.

Around the time of the Great War, many "medals" were made for temperance, school attendance and similar reasons.

A medallion with the same front but with an inscription on the reverse was produced to commemorate the raid on Zeebrugge and Ostend in 1918 (image from the public domain)

certainly around in 1893 to celebrate temperance. (image from the public domain)

plenty of different Temperance examples  on Google search.

the fronts (obverse) being similar presumably were a stock item that had different backs (reverse) when called for stamping dies.
