thetrenchrat22 Posted 26 July , 2017 Share Posted 26 July , 2017 Hi does anybody have any information on the medal in the photo the shop I brought it from said it was a coronation medal given to school children. The seller ensured me it is a coronation medal and not a Great War medal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ralphjd Posted 26 July , 2017 Share Posted 26 July , 2017 (edited) George V was crowned in 1911 , this is a Peace medal as depicted by the the dates 1914-1919 and the two servicemen - soldier and sailor, afraid the seller is way out. It would have been suspended via a red/white/blue ribbon. I have a lot but none like the one shown. Ralph Edited 26 July , 2017 by ralphjd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetrenchrat22 Posted 26 July , 2017 Author Share Posted 26 July , 2017 Ralph thank you for your reply, when I pointed out the words and dates. He gave me a blank look and still was saying it was a coronation medal and he even said to me I didn't know what was taking about. Any idea deal when it was manufactured and by whom. Also who was it given too alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
