Missing Medals

3. I am searching for my Grandfathers missing WW1 medals. They were sold at either Gawler or Elizabeth Cash Converters approximately 10 to 15 years ago without my knowledge. There is a chance they have been separated but he was awarded the 3 medals. I would love to have these missing war service medals returned to the family and any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I hope that the collector who purchased them would consider selling them back to me, I am prepared to pay an amount above their value which can be negotiated.

2. My family is searching for the missing First World War medals of my grandfather, John Alfred TAYLOR. He served in the British Army Royal West Kent Regiment 7th & 8th Battalions . Sadly his medals were sold by another family member without my knowledge at either Gawler or Elizabeth Cash Converters in South Australia approximately 10 to 15 years ago, I would love to have these missing war service medals returned to the family and any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I am very sad that my Grandfathers medals were sold and hope that the collector who purchased them may be prepared to sell them back to me.

I am searching for my grandfathers medals from the second world war. The story goes that my uncle took the medals to someone to have the ribbons redone, before these medals could be returned he passed away without telling anyone whom had them for the repair. My uncle was based in Blayney so it is my understanding that they are around that area. I have the original miniatures it is only that large ones missing. His history in the force is hard to pin down as he bounce around several company's as follows 2 Anti tank 6 anti tank 2/14 Field regiment 52 Australian Transport Platoon which is the unit listed on the World War Two Nominal Roll (so his unit upon discharge from the AIF) The name and Service number on the medals are; W.R. PARSONS NX150319 Any information would be greatly appreciated in finding theses medals. If someone has purchased these since I am happy to compensate with an added reward.

I am searching for the missing war service medals of William John JONES who served with the 19th Infantry Battalion, AIF during the Great War. The last known location of these missing war medals was at a pawn store in Russell Street, Toowoomba in 1947. William would often pawn his medals to buy food for his family, however sadly he passed away before picking them up on the last occasion. William John JONES was also awarded a gold fob with "Milton District War Service Medal" engraved on the reverse (Milton/Ulladulla NSW). I fully understand that a medal set such as this is highly collectible. I also realise that if somebody has these medals in their collection, that they may not wish to part with them. But my wife's family would be extremely grateful, just to learn that they are safe and valued. If you are the person who currently has custody of the medals and would consider selling them back to us, then we would very much appreciate it. Alternatively, if ever you decide to sell them in the future, we would be most grateful if our family was given first offer. I am an ex-serviceman myself and I dearly value the service of my fellow veterans and the medals which represent them.

My family is searching for the missing Second World War medals of my great grandfather, Henry Macdonald PITTAWAY. Henry served in the Royal Australian Navy during World War 2 on board the ships HMAS Canberra and HMAS Australia. Tragically his medals were accidentally discarded when a cabinet of a chest of drawers was placed out for street collection and we never got the medals back, once it was realised that the medals were missing. We are desperate to have these missing war service medals returned and any assistance would be greatly appreciated. As you can imagine, we are quite distraught that they were discarded in such a manner and hope that they are now in the hands of a conscientious collector who may be prepared to help us.

My Great Grand Fathers (William Joseph PURCELL) Medals were sold by a Great Auntie many years ago. I am current serving member, each generation has served since William did, I am attempting to restore the families collection of medals to pass down one day. Last known to be sold in March 2003 by Nobles Numismatics in Syd - they can't contact buyer. It should be his full rack including: Distinguished Conduct Medal (GVR); British War Medal 1914-18; Victory Medal (MID); British War Medal 1939-45; Australia Service Medal 1939-45. I have done extensive research and have the full history and service records for all relatives. It would be a great honor to our entire family get them back or at least be able to hold the originals.
