A set of miniature medals consisting of two First World War campaign medals; the British War Medal, the Victory Medal and the Special Constable Long Service and Good Conduct Medal awarded Major Theophilus Garfield Skyrme retired. These miniature versions of medals are designed to be worn with formal evening wear.

This is a set of First World War miniature orders and medals on a chain. They show, from the front and viewing from left to right, the French Legion of Merit, the French Croix de guerre, the French Academic Palms, the Serbian Order of the White Eagle with Swords, the Greek Order of the Redeemer, the Greek Order of George I, and the French medal of the Orient. The set likely belonged to a French officer, as it was common to have the highest orders from ones own country on the left of a set of medals, then orders from other countries, and then the lower-ranked medals on the end, right-side of the set. The Serbian and Greek orders and then the Orient medal seem to indicate these were for an officer who had seen service in the Balkans during the First World War. || French Legion of Merit.
