Orders, Decorations, Medals and Militaria

India General Service 1908-35 (2), 1 clasp, Afghanistan N.W.F. 1919 (L-9424 L-Cpl. A. E. Peters, R. Suss. R.); another, G.V.R. 2nd issue, 1 clasp, Waziristan 1921-24 [sic] (2200250 Pte. F. A. Sharp. R. Suss. R.) suspension altered on second, good very fine (2) £60-£80

Sold with a photographic image of Lance-Corporal Peters, 13 Platoon, ‘D’ Company, 7th Battalion, Royal Sussex Regiment in the trenches near Monchy during the Battle of Arras, 10 April 1917.

Note: The G.V.R. 2nd issue of the India General Service Medal 1908-35 was used from 1930 onwards; consequently, it is unlikely that Sharp’s correct claps entitlement is Waziristan 1921-24.
