Description
New Zealand Medal 1860-1861. 6072 Sapr Fredk Woodall Ryl Engrs. Impressed. Very fine.
Ex Payne Collection 1911 and mentioned in Payne's epic publication. New Zealand Medals to the RE are excessively rare, especially an early date such as this. Sapper Woodall served in the Taranaki Campaign of 1860-1861. He saw action at Kaihihi on 10 & 11 October 1860, at Mahoetahi on 6 November 1860 and in the Waitara from December 1860 to March 1861. Woodall took part in the attack on Number 3 Redoubt at Waitara on 23 January 1861. The New Zealand Medal dated 1860-61 is exceedingly rare to non-Naval recipients
