The sale of British, Russian, and World Orders, Medals and Decorations in association with Sotheby’s is on Thursday May 31. The collection of 59 individual medals was amassed by a UK-based private collector who set himself the target of acquiring an example of a Waterloo medal awarded to each of the units who qualified to receive it – 42 British Regiments, the King’s German Legion, Artillery and Corps. All were under the command of the Duke of Wellington at the Battle of Waterloo in June, 1815.
