Hello all.

This '39-'45 Star came to me with zero information and it is an area I know little about so was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.

I think it may have been issued to a South African Doctor from the 102nd General Hospital but even though I have a number and a name stamped on the back of it I can't seem to find any record of the person it was issued to.

Can anyone help? Point me towards a South African database to check etc?

Also, none of the British stars were stamped with the soldiers name so this seemed like a bit of an oddity to me, is it? Are the stamped medal valuable?

Info stamped on rear: 176481 D.T. Maclay.
