Frank, If you find a way to get around Bank Fees, please let me know. Those Bankers know how to make you pay and pay.....

This is the first time I have purchased from City Coins and I am really impressed with the high customer service recieved. Most impressive. I am sure I will bidding with CC again.

Cheers

Brett,
A lovely pair, was a copy of the original rolls included?, I think I would contact the the museum at St Lukes, Viewfield Road, Aberdeen, AB15 7XH, as you are abroad perhaps a email to museum@gordonhighlander.com would be the way to go.

Thank you. I hope I will have something to report about Barker. My last purchase, a KRRC group, turned into a research flop. Even my last hope for information, The Rifles Museum in Winchester, could not help. I hope to do better this time.

Frank

There were no papers with the medals, but Barker is listed in David's Elandslaagte book, although with a different initial. I have already been told that Barker's records are not on Ancestry, so that is an ominous start. By coincidence, yesterday I looked up the Gordon Highlanders Museum on the Internet, so I will be contacting them

Regards
Brett
