A Sutlej Medal

£100 - £150 £100

A Sutlej Medal, re-named to Corporal Christopher Bond 16th Lancers, Sobraon exergue, no clasp (C. BOND. CORPORAL 16TH LANCERS), engraved, much edge bruising, good fine.

This man was a bona fide member of the regiment but the medal roll indicates that he did not qualify for the medal, having been "Sick at Loodianha". The style of naming appears near contemporary, and one might speculate that this medal was acquired and worn by the man himself.
