Bert's gongs - part two
This is inscribed A.C. MACKIE 1925 on the reverse. The box is now a little tatty but it shows that the medal came from Mappin & Webb.
A search on Google reveal that A.C.C. stands for Association of Conservative Clubs. Here are a couple of results:
'The Medal you describe is the "Association Of Conservative Clubs~Distinguished Service Medal"'
'I took it to mappin & webb in London who made the medal and they confirmed it is for the con club'

There is a picture of an almost identical medal on Flickr
'I believe the ACC may represent the Association of Conservative Clubs. Members of the ACC were sometimes affiliated to The Primrose League.'
