PRIVATE HENRY ATKINSON, 95TH (DERBYSHIRE) REGIMENT (THE POST 1880 2ND BATTALION THE SHERWOOD FORRESTERS, DERBYSHIRE REGIMENT). Indian Mutiny Medal, 1 clasp, Central India (officially named, impressed in serifed block capitals: Hy. ATKINSON, 95th. REGt.). Attractively toned, Good Very Fine to Almost Extremely Fine, and with a short length of original ribbon.

Only one Henry Atkinson on the Indian Mutiny Medal roll for the 95th Regiment.

Medal accompanied by copied medal rolls (2), original and published, confirming medal and clasps to 3057 Private Henry Atkinson, 95th Foot.

Medal also accompanied by details from 1861 British Army Worldwide Index, which records 3057 Private Atkinson, 95th Foot, as serving in Poona, India, in 1861. However, this 1861 Index gives christian name as John (but confirms this is the same man, as the regimental number is the same as on Indian Mutiny Medal roll, “3057”).
