The article originally stated that either 120 or 121 silver medals were awarded. I have amended this to 121. Although some sources state 120, Medals and Decorations of the British Army and Navy, Volume 1 cites, at pages 121 and 125, original Culcutta Mint documents that confirm the award of 121 silver medals.
