Hannover Waterloo 1815 (Hornist Mohlen Bruck, Leichte Batt. Lueneburg) fitted replacement soldered clip and steel ring suspension, edge bruising and contact marks, otherwise good fine £300-£400

Mohlen Bruck was a Hornist, or Bugler, in the Lueneburg Light Battalion, which fought at Waterloo with the title Lueneburg Field Battalion in the 1st Hannoverian Brigade. The regiment was badly cut up by cuirassiers, temporarily losing a colour, when moving to assist the garrison at La Haye Sainte. Their casualties were the highest of any of the Hannoverian regiments.
