Medals & Militaria

Medals and Militaria are items with huge historical significance. They represent the acts of bravery and the acts of desperation committed during warfare, they characterise periods in history that have shaped the world we live in today and each and every item tells a story. Our Militaria and Medals department covers a full range of items to include medals, ancient militaria, armour, swords, firearms and weapons, cap badges and buttons, war diaries and log books, trench art, binoculars and compasses, uniform and helmets and more. With over thirty years’ experience, Neil Holmes, head of the department, has a passion for all things military and loves to research the items and discover their untold stories. Available Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays Neil is on hand at the auction rooms to assess your items.

All of our Militaria and Medals Auctions have online bidding facilities and together with our extensive database of worldwide purchasers your items are offered for sale to the widest possible market creating every opportunity to obtain the best possible price.
