Crimea 1854-56, 1 clasp, Alma (A. Fraser. 79th. Regt.) officially impressed naming, edge bruise, very fine £200-£240

Alexander Fraser attested for the 79th Cameron Highlanders and served with them in the Crimea, dying there on 21 September 1854 (Regimental history confirms); although not listed in the latest published casualty roll, it seems possible, given the date of his death, that it was from wounds received at the Battle of the Alma, which took place the day before.
