Springham's medal is okay, but, he was also entitled to a KSA and the number is incorrect, it should be 3159, notwithstanding, still a very interesting recipient who went on to serve in the RGR.
These days, all BSA Co medals are actually really quite scarce things, sadly, many have been lost to collectors for ever, there were two bullion dealers in Rhodesia in the 1970's who were buying them in to scrap, moreover, that is exactly what happened in many cases when times were hard.
I looked briefly in WO100/77 and Warrington's medal is verified and really not a medal that is often seen on the market.

I have now acquired the BSAC medal to Warrington via a circuitous route.

Will post photos later.

I must say that I have never seen a BSAC medal in such a pristine state as the one below. You be the judge.
