“She can’t remember when she got it and doesn’t know anything about it.
“She was just going through some of her jewellery and there it was.
“She’s from Sheffield originally, so I don’t know if anyone who remembers her from there knows what it is or what it was for.

The gold medal, on a green ribbon with the words Mansfield Auxiliary on the clasp, features a silhouette of Robin Hood with the words East Midlands Federation of Ladies Auxiliary around the edge.
