Crimean War 1854 British Army Other Ranks Issue Water Canteen.

A very good and rare example retaining 99% original blue painted finish and with clear Board of Ordnance issue stamps and date 1854 GC. Sling & stopper now absent. This pattern of canteen is similar to the pattern carried at the Battle of Waterloo and carried by the British Soldier until 1860
