Well done, RJ. That's the one!
"The Cessation of Transportation medal was struck to commemorate the end of transportation and the jubilee of the colony's establishment.
Designed and produced in England, the medals arrived in Tasmania in August 1855. Nine thousand white metal medals, such as the one here, were distributed - many to children who had enjoyed a piece of 'jubilee cake' two years earlier.
One hundred bronze medals were awarded for service 'rendered in the anti-transportation cause'.
The design on the medal's reverse formed the basis for the Australian coat of arms adopted at Federation, and is one of the earliest examples of such."
Good example of one at the link.

Also, there is interesting information at your link. Seeing as only 100 bronze ones were struck, $2,000 seems a fair price.
Note that the positions of kangaroo and emu are reversed on these early medals, compared with the official coat of arms.
