MEDAL
Description
English:

A modern complete silver medal dating to 1896. The medal bears the arms of the Prince of Wales Own West Yorkshire Regiment over a pair of crossed rifles. On the ribbon around the central badge contains the names of the three Yorkshire regiments (1ST BATT YORK / 2ND BATT BRADFORD / 3RD BATT LEEDS) and the regimental depot (14TH REGL DEPOT). At the top of the medal is an integral suspension loop.

On the reverse is an inscription which reads DEPOT W.Y.REGT SERGT W.T.LEWIS 1896 above a series of silver hallmarks for Birmingham for 1896. There is also a makers mark which appears to read GE & FD.

The medal is 44mm in length and 30 mm in width. The object was not weighed at the time of recording.
