Description

Henry V. 1413-1422. Noble n. d. (1413-1422), Tower Mint. 6.89 g. Class D. Mintmark "pierced cross". Mullet and annulet by sword arm, trefoil by shield, broken annulet on ship. Spink 1743. Schneider coll. 245. Fr. 109. Selten / Rare. NGC MS61.

The classification of this piece as a D/C mule, rather than a straight class D, is due solely to the letter P on the reverse. True class D's have Brooke P9 with a sharply cut foot whereas this piece has the intact form Brooke P8. Strangely this coin was identified in the Lockett catalogue as a class F. From auction Spink 3011, London, July 2003, lot 390. From the R. C. Lockett Collection, Glendining, London, October 1961, lot 4290.
