Thanks to everyone, I will not attempt to clean the medal or the ribbon. The medal is in a small leather pouch that is hinged and has a button to close. I will post a pic later on this evening. The leather is quit worn and I do believe it to be around the same era. My Father was not a medal collector, but was a coin and stamp collector. I do not have family from Canada that I know of. I don't believe it to be from a family member. It could have been something my Grandfather picked up and passed on to my Father as a child. He was known to hang on to unique items. When I first seen the medal I assumed it was from Vietnam as my Father had two tours while in the USMC. It wasn't untill I took a closer look at it and seen the Fenian Raid 1866, that it peaked my interest.
Thanks again, and I will be updating as time goes on, I will be looking for anything else that he might have tucked away in a box. LOL
