Naval General Service 1793-1840, 1 clasp, Algiers (Christr. Pearce.) light edge bruise, otherwise very fine £800-£1,000

Glendining’s, March 1951.

Christopher Pearce is confirmed on the roll as a Landsman aboard H.M.S. Impregnable at Algiers. He joined the ship on 6 July 1816, as a supernumerary landsman together with a large number of others at Malta, being lent to Impregnable to bring the ship up to full strength ready for the campaign. After the battle Impregnable returned to Malta and Pearce was paid off returning to his original ship, the name of which is not recorded.
