Military General Service 1793-1814, 5 clasps, Vittoria, Nivelle, Nive, Orthes, Toulouse (W. Marshall, Qr. Mr. Serjt., 95th Foot) edge bruising from contact with another medal, otherwise very fine

Confirmed on the roll which gives Pyrenees in addition. A Private of this name served in the 3rd battalion at Waterloo, and a William IV long service medal is known to exist to the same name as Qr. Mr. Sergt., dated 1834. From the contact wear on the medal above it is possible that the three are one and the same man.
