Edward II (1307-1327), Penny, class 11a2/11a3, Durham, Bp Bek/Bp Kellawe mule, cross moline over cross on obv., crozier on rev., colon after tas, 1.33g/1h (cf. Allen 85; SCBI North 792/803; N 1060.2/1060.3; S 1468/9). Good fine, very rare £50-70

North notes a similar mule for London (SCBI 786) also with a colon after tas. From a different die-pairing to the mules listed by Allen; the current specimen combines the obverse of his 83 with a colon-marked reverse (cf. Allen 88)
