    WWI British Medals - 24 Found Out of the Woodwork - Need Opinions Please

    A friend of mine just found these British medals. Honestly, in 25 years of collecting I have only seen a few British medals come out of the woodwork and have not collected them.

    He said to make a fair offer and they are mine. These are his camera phone photos, so my apologies for the quality. What are your thoughts on a fair offer? He mentioned some are numbered and the large one is named.

    Thank you in advance.

        value

        What is the name and unit on the edge of the Queens South Africa medal?
        Does the name on the war medal match the name on the death penny?
        This can have a big influence on value. A lot of those medals are French and Belgian

              The death penny is named to another soldier, but the following medals are all named, numbered to one Soldier.

              Upon further research, I have found the Soldier and have a good idea how the medals got to the USA. His service records match the below medals and it would appear his family emigrated to the USA.
