May 2022 Highlights 

Welcome to our British Medals & Militaria Highlights for May 2022

Our first Highlight for April is a fine example of the Waterloo period Universal gorget, as worn by British officers on the field of Waterloo. This gorget survives in beautiful condition, with most of its original mercuric gilting in place.

Our second Highlight is a scarce Napoleonic Royal Navy Spadroon sword dating from 1790. This Spadroon has a fine ivory fluted grip with brass centre band bearing the Royal Navy anchor crest. The original black leather and brass mounted scabbard is finely decorated with cross hatched impressings.

.

For our final March Highlight, we offer a rare RAF 6E / 357 pilots chronograph by the firm of Pierce. One of the few survivors, as it would seem this was a small contract from the Air Ministry. This example is shown in Knirim’s publication, British Military Timepieces.
