<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dafydd, post: 26644994, member: 86815&quot;]Ok [USER=10461]@lordmarcovan[/USER] I didn&#039;t know you would have a big reveal because I was happy to be anonymous as I wrote but I love it, so I can explain stuff as you go along.</p><p>This coin was designed by a friend of mine another Welshman named Kevin Ashman, he is a historical author and worked for a short time at the Royal Mint where his son still works. He has authored some good Roman novels and &quot;dark ages&quot; novels and if you ever saw Zulu , the film with Michael Caine, Kevin produces the medals for the South Wales Borderers Museum. There was a great 140th year&nbsp; reunion in 2019 when descendants of some of the Zulu Chiefs and warriors and descendants of soldiers who fought at Rawkes Drift met up in Wales. It was my very sad duty to inform Kev that the pistol brandished in Lt Bromhead&#039;s hand in his medal was not a Mauser C96 Broomhandle.&nbsp; Gun historians like me would also know that in the film Michael Caine was holding a Webley Mark VI service revolver a WW1 revolver.</p><p>Back to this unique piece I know that this is part of a set of famous and not so famous battles and none have ever made it across the water.</p><p>Here is Kev&#039;s amazon authors page <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/author/B005F5M0GW" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/author/B005F5M0GW" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/author/B005F5M0GW</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I really appreciate what you do with your giveaways and there are more generous folk than me but I thought I would send you some items to appeal to everyone.</p><p>Tell us which ones you think are the ones I sent to you.</p><p>Incidentally I did some work on Vault Box numbers and worked out their potential profit, and the potential for getting a great result and decided not to get involved,</p><p>Better odds than a Lottery but slim pickings for unlucky people like me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
