I am not a collector (at the moment) but was interested to note that you are interested in the Manchester Regiment.
I became interested in the Manchester Regiment when as a result of ancestry research I discovered that my great uncle was in the 2/5 Manchesters and was killed in france in 1917.
I am currently a serving Police Officer and on occasion military medals are handed in to the police station and never returned due to lack of information about the owners. I recently returned a Manchester Regiment war medal to the museum that was handed in, as it was the best place for it.

Thats a beautiful memento of your great uncle, never seen one like it before.
