WWI Medal Group

Recently acquired this small group locally here in Alberta, Canada. The two middle medals are from New York and Brownsville, Brooklyn. The New York medal is also numbered. I normally collect WWI Commonwealth medals, but these were too interesting to pass up.

No names? It is usually easier to research Brooklyn, NY guys, so I always wish for a name! ;)

 

Lovely grouping! really like both versions of the Victory medal.

The medal on the left is actually a French victory medal....but I was told it was part of the group. They are seen in commonwealth medal groups sometimes. Not all allies got them.

New York with number.

 

25347 is missing from the rolls but all the numbers surrounding it closely were issued in 1921.

Nice group and thanks for posting it. The Brownsville-Brooklyn is a real gem and pretty scarce from what I can tell.

Thanks for the info....I wouldn't have known where to look.
