I have a proposal for the medallions here. The twisted-snake design is so totally different than the standard animal-head design of other witcher medallions depicted by CDPR. In fact, none of the medallions on these kingslayers are ever shown to glow when monsters are nearby, nor do they appear to have crystal eyes that glow, just like on Geralt's wolf medallion.

So in essence, I say that these medallions are actually normal metal necklaces made specifically to show allegiance to the Kingslayers and not to the now-defunct School of the Viper. Maybe the twisted-snake design and not the snake-head design is a way for these guys to remember who they used to belong to, while not being official witchers anymore.
