Lot 571 is an Afghanistan Medal from 1878-80.
This was awarded to 704, Pte. S. Bicknell, 2/11th Regt.
As the recipient never wore the medal, it is in mint condition, almost as struck.
Our auction estimate is £180 - £220.
Lot 572 is an India Medal from 1895, with "Punjab Frontier 1897-98" clasp.
It was awarded to 4161, Pte. H. Stadames, 2nd Battn, Argyle & Sutherland Highlanders.
This has an estimate of £160 - £200.
Lot 583 is an Irish Republic 50th Anniversary of the Easter Rising Veteran's or Survivor's
medal in gilt silver, hallmarked JM Co., Dublin, 1966.
These were issued to all soldiers who survived.
The family believe that the recipient was James Goodall from Wexford who apparently
held up trains in order that the British could not get to Dublin!
They believe he may also have been a footballer of note in his prime.
The medal is in excellent condition, it has the original riband fitted with h/m bar brooch
and comes with green box of issue.
We are estimating this star lot at £1800 - £2200.
