Ok Mate, Well the word Triennial means every three years and the date is when it was foundered (1895)  and 26 is the 26 Triennial 3 Times 26 is 78 so ADD 1895 + 78 = 1973 and that is what I guess the date to be just looking at the condition and doing the Maths,

It just might be A Knights Templar / Masson's Medal,  from what I found on the NET and it is hard Rubber, Here's a link.
