Indian States, Patiala, Maharaja’s Turban Badge, by the Goldsmiths and Silversmiths Company, Ltd., 78 x 73mm., silver-gilt badge formed of a star of radiating Indian weaponry linked by a wreath; in the centre, surmounted by a crown, a fine enamelled portrait of Maharaja Bhupinder Singh; reverse with supporting hook, to each side, five silver chains connected to hallmarked silver-gilt hook fittings, the badge reverse bearing the manufacturer’s initials and hallmarks for Birmingham 1946, extremely fine, rare £1200-1500 On the badge Bhupinder Singh (1900-38) is portrayed wearing a uniform with orders and medals, including the star and sash of the Knight Grand Commander of the Order of the Star of India (G.C.S.I.). On his head he wears a turban with a similar turban badge to the above, this being held in place by five chains. Bhupinder Singh was succeeded as Maharaja by Yadavindra Singh (1938-48). Born in 1913 and educated at Aitchison College, Lahore. He served as Superintendent of Police for the Patiala District and in 1933 was appointed the Chancellor of Khalsa College, Amritsar. A keen sportsman, in 1934 he was selected by India to play in the cricket test against England. He was President of the Indian Olympic Association, 1938-60. In 1946 he was appointed Aide-de-Camp to King George VI and Pro-Chancellor of the Chamber of Princes. In post-independence India he was appointed Rajpramukh for Patiala and East Punjab States Union, 1948-56. A Member of the Indian delegation to the 11th session of the United Nations General Assembly, in 1958 he represented India at the 10th annual conference of UNESCO and later led the Indian delegation at meetings of the UN Food and Agricultural Organization. In 1960 he was appointed Chairman of the Indian Council of Sports and in 1965 he was appointed to the prestigious post of Ambassador to Rome, 1965-67. He died in 1974. It is tempting to think that the above badge was ordered by Yadavindra Singh in relation to one of the official appointments made in 1946. .

A rare Matabeleland 1893 casualty’s British South Africa Company’s Medal awarded to Trooper W. A. Cary, Salisbury Horse, who died of wounds received in action at Imbembezi British South Africa Company Medal 1890-97, reverse Matabeleland 1893, no clasp (Troopr. W. A. Cary, Salisbury Horse), edge bruise, nearly extremely fine £1000-1200 William Arthur Cary was born in 1872, the fourth son of Colonel Francis Cary, and accompanied his father to South Africa in 1888, when the latter commanded the 1st Battalion, East Yorkshire Regiment. Completing his education at the Diocesan College, Rondebosch, Capetown, where he gained a reputation for being an excellent shot - as a Sergeant-Major in the School Corps he won a challenge cup for rifle shooting with the highest score ever made at that time - young William enlisted in the British South Africa Police on the same day as his brother, Trooper C. W. Cary, in May 1891. Still a member of the Company’s Police after it had been re-titled the Mashonaland Mounted Police in the following year, he volunteered to serve in the Matabele War in 1893, when he was appointed a Trooper in Captain Heany’s Troop in the Salisbury Horse. Cary was dangerously wounded in the engagement at Imbembezi on 1 November 1893, being shot through the head and never regaining consciousness - he died about five miles from Thabas Induna on the 3rd, and was buried that morning alongside Trooper Julius Siebert who had been similarly wounded in the same action. His Commanding Officer wrote: ‘He was a general favourite, an adept at all field sports, and a clever lad all round; and his death is sincerely regretted by his comrades. He was generally anxious - being a wonderfully good shot - to make good shooting at Imbembezi, and it was in eagerly exposing himself with that object that he was hit in the head with a Martini bullet.’.
