Partly-printed DS, signed in the upper left corner, one page, 14 x 9.5, July 4, 1849. Queen Victoria appoints Francis Henry Atherly Gint “to be Ensign in Our Fortieth Regiment of Foot from the…June 1849,” granting him authority by “Exercising and well Disciplining both the inferior Officers and Soldiers in the said Regiment.” Intersecting folds, and toning and light foxing to the edges, none of which affect the signature, otherwise fine condition. The royal seal is mildly toned and very much intact, with a crisp One Pound Ten Shillings blind stamp beneath it. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
