Hanoverian Napoleonic Medals On eBay

[Guest Rick Research]

Thanks to Hardy for bringing this to my notice. Sale just ended on Hanoverian Waterloo Medal named to Soldat Christian Dreyer, Landwehr Bataillon Salzgitter. Item number 330342039772 sold in Germany by seller cartman333 for ?1205.85.

Finkam (1901) said that this unit made a bold bayonet charge in the woods near Hougoumont. Gordon showed 622 men in the unit, but I couldn't find casualty numbers.

Any other eBay sightings, please add here. :beer:

A nice one

Unfortunately I was outbid on this.

But I got a Brunswick Waterloo from the same seller cartmann333 two weeks ago - will show it later.

Here are the casualty numbers for the Landwehr Bat. Salzgitter after Wiilliam Siborne:

- 1 NCO and 10 Men killed

- 2 Officers, 3 NCO and 57 Men wounded.

greetings
