Boer War German PoWs in St. Helena shell card bronze medal – with image 1900 South Africa Kruger
46mm with attatched brass mount allowing this to be worn
The rarer of the 2 varieties with the coat of arms background smooth (rather than hatched)
Hern 298 priced this medal at 55000 Rand (about £2200!)
This was made by a French PoWÂ – it was reported that 20 were made – we think this might be a little low but this is a very rare medal – seldom offered
