Most people are delighted at the large amounts they are offered.

The Medal Centre have been asked to return to a number of local venues due to the huge response to the event held at this venue last time they visited. One local resident was absolutely thrilled to accept a four figure sum for a small tin box containing her late Uncle’s medals for bravery during WW1 along with his campaign medals for service in the Boer War and WW1 with gold and silver coins, along with a small amount of broken jewellery.  The lady was astounded to discover how much her items were worth and the money could not have come at a better time due to the current financial situation. On top of all that she was delighted to be helping local ex-servicemen and women There has never been a better time to sell your inherited collectable items due to The Medal Centres vast client base. They are able to offer the best possible prices and proprietor Andrew Jukes said “We are now able to pay exceptionally high prices for all medals from a single item to a complete collection”.

Prices for these items are at an all time high and people are often surprised how much associated items such as cloth and metal badges or items of uniform, paperwork and photographs can enhance the value of a group of medals. Even items such as military pay books or old photographs will always be of interest to a genuine collector.  It is also a good way to help your local community as The Medal Centre will be giving a donation to local ex-service charities for every item they are able to purchase on the day.  If you cannot attend on the day one of the experts from The Medal Centre will be happy to call and see you at your convenience and they can be contacted on 01434 609794 or 07950 421704.
