These were presented to the crew of Scott and Shackeltons Antartic excursions. It has been in the family for many years and do not know when or where it came from. I can not see any marks or names on the rim but I am not sure what I should be looking for. Does anyone know anything about identifying these medals Report this Post to the Staff

They are extremely knowledgeable, but sadly many of them are wowsers and view all outsiders as potential dealers, so whatever you do, don't ask for a value. Report this Post to the Staff
