Pair: Corporal H. Parrish, 9th Lancers

Queen’s South Africa 1899-1902, 7 clasps, Belmont, Modder River, Relief of Kimberley, Paardeberg, Johannesburg, Diamond Hill, Wittebergen (3928 Corpl., 9/Lcrs.), surname spelt ‘Parish’ on this medal, with unofficial copper rivets to 3 of the clasps; King’s South Africa, 2 clasps (3928 Corpl., 9th Lancers) good very fine or better (2) £150-200

Sold with copy of medal roll confirming all seven clasps, the Relief of Kimberly clasp is noted as ‘added’, suggesting that this was sent later, which probably explains the unofficial rivets. The K.S.A. roll states, ‘sent home, invalide’.
