Hello David,
I would only buy it if it could be had for a modest price, Charles Toomey was a 24 year old labourer from Kildare, it is a pity, it would have been a really nice medal if it was complete.
Kind regards Frank

What a pity it's in such a state.

I can't find any WO 97 papers for him online but he was invalided to pension so there's a big file in series PIN 71 at the NA.

A nice QSA/KSA pair to Lt/Capt R Selby RAMC has just appeared on eBay, complete with the miniatures. I hadn't recorded these as being on the market in the past.

Sold for £455 any of our members make the winning bid?

Hello Paul,
I had not looked at these, but, if there are no issues, then the price paid was not expensive.

Paul,

Sadly not but as Frank says the price paid was quite reasonable.

Kind regards
