An Exceptionally Good Looking WATERLOO MEDAL (Officially Impressed) To: RICHARD MIDDLETON, ROYAL ARTILLERY DRIVERS. Served in Major N. Turner’s “A” Troop. This excellent medal has clearly been much loved & well cared for by the original recipient at the start of its life, and much cherished since. As is common with many Waterloo medals it’s had a perfectly acceptable & excellent private suspension modification which in this case is an outstandingly professional production. The normal steel edge clip has been faithfully replicated in silver with the iron ring replaced by a neat silver horizontal suspension bar. Clip and Suspension are connected via an inverted “hat shaped” aperture. NOTE: The original metal suspension fittings would tend to go rusty in the rain and were notorious at the time for making an ugly rusty mark on the red coats. As a result, a great many Waterloo men had private suspension adaptions produced which come in an innumerable variety of designs. This conversion is a particularly nice looking example of the silversmiths’ craft. One or two very minor non distracting edge bumps, but overall a very attractive and good looking medal in GVF or better condition. A very high quality addition to any serious British medal collection. £2995 With Quality Part Exchanges Welcome Call Us Today on 01342-870960 or 07837-621144
