Talbot, Allum & Lee Cent, John Howard Mule, NGC graded AU-53 Brown.
Breen 1049. Softly struck on the centers (as usual), but sharp elsewhere.
Attractive, original, reddish- brown colors and pleasing surfaces. This
mule links the popular TAL Token with the British "Conder" token series

as a "gateway" Conder, as it introduces many American collectors to the
interesting British series for the first time, and forces the realization
that many "American" Colonial coins were manufactured in places other than
America.""Choice About Uncirculated"
