Eric,

Actually it is not a "medal", but a Cavalry Regimental Badge. To be specific, 11th Legion Lancers Regiment of Marshal Smigly-Rydz. Unit formed in 1919 from Jablonski Division in Krakow, Radomsk and Jedzelow Divisions. Center disk has the insignia of the 1st Jozef Pilsudski Brigade.
Congratulations, a quite desirable and historical Badge.

Below, an example from my Polish collection.
