Hammer Price:
£1,800

Military General Service 1793-1814, 4 clasps, Corunna, Fuentes D’Onor, Vittoria, Pyrenees (Charles Robertson, 92nd Foot) minor edge bruise, otherwise nearly very fine £800-1000

Confirmed on musters as in hospital after Pyrenees. This possibly due to wounds, as the Gordon Highlanders had 55 other ranks killed and 363 wounded in various engagements in the Pyrenees. Robertson was also badly wounded at Waterloo.
