Default The Wakefield Medal Question

I picked up a medal a while ago which came out of a box of badges I was shown.

I believe it to be one of those tribute medals which most towns and cities gave returned soldiers at the end of WW1.

What I need to know is if such a medal was manufactured and issued in 1919 in hallmarked silver and presented by then Colonel and MP of Wakefield E. A. Brotherton.

Does anyone on the forum know anyone from Wakefield that might be able to identify such a medal?

I apologise for such a specific question, its going to tale a true master of Yorkshire militaria to ID this one thats for sure!

Thank you chaps.
