That's nice Mike, good examples of cavalry medals are certainly not getting any easier to find these days.

I should be very pleased with William Ainsworth if I were you, a very well travelled gentleman who had already seen South Africa before the Anglo Boer War and who went on to see a couple of years home service in the Great War too.

Never mind Mike, only bits of silver, plenty to be had, patience is needed here I feel (as well as some money!)

Very nice addition, as Frank says you must be pleased with this one.
