Hi can anyone confirm  this is Mdina 8" high so quite a large one.

Yup, it's Mdina all right. Although it's large, I suspect it's a later-than-Harris one. Jewell-like blues and a typical later "style" of assembling the design.

Everybody hopes for Harris-early period. But big (8"-9") ones were made later too - it's the foot + high ones you start to suspect might be Harris.
