silver medallions

Second-place circular prizes

Silver medallions are disk-shaped pieces of silver, typically decorative or commemorative, awarded as prizes or worn as ornaments.

In cooking, medallions are small, round, flat cuts of meat—usually tender cuts like beef tenderloin or pork loin: The chef prepared silver-dollar-sized medallions of veal.

The modifier silver here suggests color or premium quality rather than the metal itself.
