Die Arbeit Portrait of an officer of the 3rd Hussars; and Portrait of an officer of the 10th Royal Hussars in India (one illustrated) von Richard Simkin kam im März 2008 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 800,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 812,50 (€ 1.020,70) einen neuen Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Richard Simkin auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit 10th Prince of Wales's Own Royal Hussars; and three others im Januar 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.287,50 (€ 5.680,60).
