Hi The LIVERPOOL SHIPWRECK & HUMANE SOCIETY respond me the vice chairman:
The most important to me he says is:
"As an added interest I also collect medals for life saving, so you can imagine my delight in receiving the e-mail.
Your contact and pictures are very interesting indeed. The Gold Bramley-Moore medal has never been seen before it has been assumed to have been lost in a similar
manner as one of our Gold Fire medals, (melted down to provide for family needs, a long time ago).
It looks as though it may be a genuine medal, the engraving of the words around the rim looks good, and, the obverse and reverse of the medal look good.
The medal is incomplete, ( not a major problem) as it needs ribbon and a Gold Suspender, similar to the silver ones on some of the medals on our web site, ( these
can be obtained as either used items or one could be made, not a huge cost so don't worry). The condition of the medal (from the photographs) is not pristine, but it does
look to be in a better than fine condition, there appear to be a couple of edge knocks, which is never good."
Obviously to certify it they would have to see it in person.
