Default Victorian Tray and Medals

Good morning all

I thought I would post the following items.

1x Tray for Qr Mr Sergt W. Guiver on leaving the Army in August 1894
1x Ashantee medal with Coomassie clasp
1x Army Long Service and Good Conduct Medal

W. Guiver was my Maternal Grandmother's Brother in law and he and her sister looked after my grandmother when their parents died.

The Tray and medals were past down to My Grandmother, then to my Father and then on to me.

Regards

Ian
