Description:
Death of Sir Ralph Abercrombie, Great Britain. Though only the white metal is listed as rare this is the only example of this medal I've ever seen outside of reference books. Abercromby was sent with a British army to deal with the army Napoleon left in Egypt. While he won the battle he was mortally wounded and died a few days later.
