There was no actual medal for the Battle of Jutland.  However, there was a medallion struck.

Presumably anybody could buy one?

Well that's something I didn't know.

My grandad was there on the destroyer Owl - Leading Seaman T H Osborne.

Thanks for this.

Here is the HMS Owl crew list.  Do you have a photo of him?
