Antique Victorian Officers Military V R Cypher Dress Ammo Box Monogrammed 19thC
DESCRIPTION
Antique leather and metal officers ammunition pouch. Dating to the late 19thC this silver plated face is decorated in brass trim with acorns (perhaps a major rank) which flanks a central cartouche of an intertwined VR (Victoria Regina) under a crown. This is hinged to a Moroccan red leather pouch which covers the wooden back. The inside tongue may have been replaced as it looks very new and the attaching brass rings are no longer present.
Marked: VR

A great addition to any military, British or box collection.
