Boer War QSA Medal with six clasps

A Boer War Queen's South Africa Medal with six clasps, 'South Africa 1901', 'South Africa 1902', 'Driefontein', 'Johannesburg', 'Orange Free State' and 'Cape Colony', with renaming to read '35541 L SGT. R. HARRIS 108TH SQO SCH HORSE'

Notes: One Trooper Robert Harris matching this service number is listed with 108th (Royal Glasgow) Company, 6th Battalion, Imperial Yeomanry, raised 1901, but medal clasp rolls only confirm entitlement to Johannesburg, Cape Colony and Transvaal clasps. His records show he was in South Africa from 23rd March 1901 - 23rd December 1901. He does not appear to have been a Lance Sergeant.

Sold for £90
