Cape of Good Hope General Service 1880-97, 1 clasp, Bechuanaland (Pte. C. E. Pyper, Lanhams Hrs.) better than very fine £140-160

Medal is correctly named to Lanhams Horse but there is no trace of such a unit on the roll. Private C. E. Pyper is, however, shown on the roll of Landreys Light Horse, one of only three recipients of the Bechuanaland clasp.
