Good Morning Everyone......

Just found this group of 10 including DCM, Elandslaagte and Defence of Ladysmith to Gordon Highlanders for someone who has deep pockets if there is anything left after City Coins sale......

Good Morning Frank.....

No I wanted to save some funds because I am negotiating with someone for a group consisting of MC / MM / QSA / KSA / etc. along with Letters, some Photos etc.....

Is going to cost me a quite a bit, waiting for the family to make up their mind.....

Have been after a reasonable QSA or QSA/KSA Trio / Pair with an MC for a long time now..... There have been a few lately but the one I was looking at had a Wepener Bar, priced likewise but the person was not entitled to it.....

Hello Mike,
Wepener was really quite something, to have actually been there must have been bloody hard, not only the enemy, but the wretched weather to deal with as well, I think they have been too cheap for too long, but no good if not entitled! :(

I know there was an MC etc. in the latest City auction but it was a broken group.....

I think with all medals, things need to be perfect, otherwise, what's the point, all the more so when you get to this level in collecting.
