Edward I Class 1c/1a London Mule

SO, not the best of pictures, I'm afraid, @Paulus has run off with me camera!

Anyway, and a huge big thanks to TG for a little short-term assistance, making it all possible, I share with you the first coin I have bought in a year! I'm back, and thank God for that! 

Edward I Class 1c/a mule, formerly belonging to Jim Sazama, who acquired it, from my calculation, around the time of the J. Mass sale, when he acquired a lot of the short-cross coins from that collection. But that's purely speculation.

So, a Sazama penny, sold by DNW lot 300 on 11th June 2014, and it's now mine!

I've also got a reference SCBI North 36-7 (I don't suppose, by some wonderful miracle, that it happens to be a plate coin in that reference, does it? I still haven't got, nor can afford a copy of it just yet?).

Any tickets with it? Sazama had envelopes, but any North coin originally came with a ticket such as the attached.

Sadly not, Rob! A bit of a shame if there were any, they'd have gone missing over a very short timescale if there were. Could be worth a couple of emails I guess?

Is that your farthing?

[Rob 3,002]

No it's not. Just a ticket that passed through my hands. I always scan in tickets that are assigned and those that I can't attribute in the hope of one day establishing the author's name. I do have other North tickets, but that was the one in the ticket reference library.

Just for the record, the coin looks more like this, than the above images, with a nice old collectors' tone!
