- Stunning Red Gem Talbot, Allum & Lee/Birmingham Mule 1794 Talbot, Allum & Lee Cent / Birmingham Halfpenny Mule. Fuld Mule-1, W-8665. Rarity-4+. Copper. Lettered Edge. MS-65+ RB (PCGS). An exceptional Gem, the Talbot, Allum & Lee obverse essentially full blazing mint red, only light mellowed and fully prooflike. The Birmingham reverse is perhaps 60% mint red, also deeply reflective and lovely to behold. There are no marks or flyspecks to note, just choice surfaces and splendid visual appeal. The TAL side is crisply struck, the Birmingham side shows some softness of strike on the boy's head as always seen but is otherwise one of the boldest examples we have seen. The single finest graded by a full point and a half at PCGS. An unbeatable example of this scarce muling. Provenance: From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier from our (American Numismatic Rarities') Medio and Da Costa Gomez Collections sale, June 2004, lot 2057; Lawrence R. Stack Collection, November 2006.
