Would somebody be able to help with my query please I have found on Ancestry a medal card for a

Arthur Joseph Holtham number 9219
details are
Victory....L/102 B 15 page 3230
British " "
15 Star...L/5B page 84
Theatre of war (2) Balkans
date of entry 22/6/1915


I have also found another record for a Arthur Joseph Holtman number 9219 who was killed in action he was a private in the Worc regiment 9th battalion his death was 25/1/1917 I was wondering if this is the same soldier but its been transcribed wrong. Thank you.
 
FreeBMD has an Arthur Joseph Holtham born Aston 3rd quarter 1892
the only Arthur Holtman listed is one who married in Hinckley in 1932, no births, so I'd say that one you found is a mistranscription.
