Within the Raglan family this was known as 'Copenhagen's Hoof'. However contemporary accounts relating to the famous charger, and the hoof's relatively small size render this unlikely. It probably belonged to another of Wellington's horses, perhaps one of those depicted in lot 48, or one of Lord FitzRoy Somerset's horses from the battle. Following Copenhagen's death the Duke of Wellington personally witnessed the horse's burial and reportedly 'flew into a most violent passion' when he noticed that one of Copenhagen's hooves had been cut off as a souvenir. He apparently exhumed the body a few months later to retrieve the other hooves as keepsakes but 'his three remaining hoofs had rotted away'. The missing hoof was eventually recovered and was later made into an inkstand by the 2nd Duke of Wellington; it remains at Stratfield Saye to this day.
