I realise this is well after the date of the original postings regarding the New Zealand medals but does anyone have any images of the medal for recipients from the 1840's?

Hi Mervyn,

I am back in Khartoum after a few days in the bush. The WW1 tins appear to be the same although I have seen a silver plated ww1 tin in Johannesburg. The Boer War tins differ as I have 2 sizes from different manufacturers in my collection. In my one tin from the Boer War,there is also a small 1900 calendar. Strangely enough, there is also a 1914 calendar that came with one of the ww1 tins in my collection.

Hallo Sabrigade

Is there any chance of seeing the front of your Boer war tin - we have a tin still with the chocolate in which was received by my husbands Great Uncle when he was serving in S.A and it appears to be the third design produced for Cadbury, Fry's and Rowntrees as is different to both the one Mervyn and Leigh have . Also wondered if all three have the same Registration number on them ?
