Bronze medallion

I have a Bronze medallion that I am trying to get some information on, can anyone help?

It's approx 2" Diameter and 1/4" thick. On one side it has a head and the name Scott and on the other it has a partially clothed women leaning against a plinth which has a sash rapped around it with the words 'To great men'.

Around the edge it has the following Latin inscription 'Qui reddidit istro bardorum citharas patrio' which I have translated to mean 'Which/who has returned I enter the citharas of the bards father's'? It also has the date mark MDCCCXXVII (1827)

Can anyone tell me anything at all about this object?
