Description

1794 Talbot, Allum & Lee Cent / Promissory Halfpenny Mule. Fuld Mule-2A, W-8690. Rarity-5. Copper. LONDON Edge. MS-65+ BN (PCGS).
149.8 grains. Beautiful, reflective surfaces are predominantly light olive-brown while direct light reveals steel-blue and golden-tan iridescence as well as flashes of mint red on the obverse. No spots, abrasions, or other imperfections of any consequence. Outstanding originality, quality, and eye appeal throughout and a coin that easily upholds the Gem+ grade. This is the scarcer PAYABLE IN LONDON edge and the second highest graded example at PCGS behind one MS-66 BN.
PCGS# 973.
From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier ex Mike Ringo, July 1993.

Estimate: $1000
