    1. Hello Gentlemen and good day to all. I have been reading your posts on Irish medals and I would like to ask several questions if I may. Firstly, I purchased a 1917-1921 War of Independence Medal about 35 years ago from a small antique dealer in Elora Ontario. Was wondering if thier is any way to check that it is an original and not a copy. It does not have a Cormac bar, so my understanding is that, it was issued for non active service. I can post photo's if that would help. Secondly, my Grandfather served in the British army until 1921 (Royal Irish Rifles). Upon disbandment of Irish regiments in British service he joined the Free State Army. Saw active service from 1921 on until his death in 1932. Would he be entitled to any medals from the Irish government? Further, I am unsure whether he ever claimed any medals he may have been entitled to. Is their a way of finding out if he had claimed any medals and where could I enquire? Thank you for any information you may be able to provide. Joe Dillon
