MILITARY MEDALS. Campaign Singles. SOUTH AFRICA MEDAL, 1877-79, single clasp, 1879 (2315 Pte R. Murray, 91st Foot) officially engraved in large upright capitals. Toned, pleasing extremely fine.
Private R Murray's name is presently unconfirmed on the South Africa 1879 Roll, but his regimental number is appropriate for a man serving in this Regiment at the time. At present unconfirmed, but worthy of further research. The naming is engraved in precisely the same regimental style as in the example shown for the 91st Foot in British Battles & Medals (7th Ed).
Estimate: £350-400
