Well, I can see why you bought that, I was very keen on Natal when I started collecting and that is a good honest medal of the type I would have bought, I hope you are pleased with it, the fight for Ladysmith was very intense indeed.
Kind regards Frank

There were some good medals on the Durban sale. Adrian has already posted one pair and I suspect there will be an excellent group of five shown on this site soon.

My own acquisition is not relevant here since it is a group without a Boer War connection. I thought medals (India Medal and/or QSA/KSA) might be missing, but, thanks to the ever-helpful Frank, it has been found to be complete as it stands.

Regards
Brett
