*** ULTRA RARE 1877 - 1878 SOUTH AFRICA ZULU WAR MEDAL *** START @ R1

You are bidding on an Ultra Rare 1877 - 8 South Africa Zulu War Medal in perfect condition!

The campaign began in 1877 with an attack on the Fingoes by the Galeka and Gaika tribes and culminated in the showdown between the Zulus and the British when Lord Chelmsford's column was annihilated at Isandhlwana. When the 3000 Zulus advanced on Rorke's Drift, however, they were checked with heavy losses by a tiny garrison of 139 men. During the defence no fewer than eleven VCs were won - a very large number for a single action. The campaign concluded with the defeat of Cetshwayo's warriors at Ulundi.

Medal has an 1877 - 8 clasp and is correctly named to PTE W. GRUNIG, BOLOTWA VOL.
