The Charlton family are facing an inheritance tax bill of around £200,000 (€233,000) if they wish to keep Big Jack's medal within the family.
"When they came to the medal, tax people here said that they were looking at around £200,000 for me to get the medal."
The family were left baffled by the valuation and unable to get a clear answer on where it came from.
"Five generations down the line would mean that we would have to pay the tax man about a million pounds," said John.
