Garth, Is it possible to show the reverse of the Cape Copper Company medal. A close up of the obverse and reverse of the Kimberly star would realy make may day! I have only seen bad copies on Ebay! Thanks, Jan

Early (pre-1858) awards for India

Ed, Checked the old shoebox yet? A link wil do nicely too. At http://www.britishmedalforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=4041 the owner of a tin Seringapatam medal stated that this medal was originally a table medal (not wearable) and only allowed to wear after 1815 to British soldiers. Is this true, and does this also count for Indian soldiers? Regards, Jan -

Ed, Magnificent (as always)! But how about the Medal for the Battle of Plassey (1757) and Medal for the Taking of Pondicherry (1761) ? They are HEIC medals too I believe. As there are no pictures of the The Ceylon Medal (1818) , can you please describe the medal. Thanks, Jan
