Military General Service 1793-1814, 1 clasp, Egypt (P. Taglione, Maltese Pioneers) minor nicks and marks, otherwise good very fine and scarce £1200-1400

Although only three officers and three men of the Regiment of Maltese Pioneers are recorded by Mullen, a full medal roll exists (WO 100/12) which gives the names of 39 other ranks who received the medal for Egypt, in addition to the three officers. Paulo Taglione is confirmed on the roll.
