Probably this WW 1 medal. I think from my Grandfather on my Mom's side.


But I don't really know the story about it, because I don't think my grandfather was the right age for WW1, and this medal was issued either by England or Canada (part of the Empire), while gramps was a US citizen.

Looks like similar are selling on ebay for about $300.
