£5,000

Sir Harry Smith’s Medal for Gallantry 1851 (Thos. Dicks) fitted with silver clip and ring suspension, good very fine and very rare £2000-2500

Ex Glendining 1925.

Approximately 31 examples known to exist, of which 19 are named. No two of the medals named are similarly engraved and as 11 of those surviving are unnamed it is reasonable to assume that they were presented in this state.
