      Always such a shame when a ticket goes astray!

      Bit of a tragic tale, that!

      The collection was sold through DNW in conjunction with Stephen Mitchell, who was a favourite dealer of John's with many supplied through that channel. Apparently a box was dropped when picking up the collection. It isn't impossible that it was lost at that point, even falling through the drain grid. A metal detector around chez Hulett (decd) might be of use, but a bit of a bummer though, if it was lost at that point.

      Without the ticket I wonder if it may even be in unknowing hands? It would only take one local deceased-estate sale for it to lose its identity and fall into ignorant hands.

      Variation on a theme here. One lot I had won in the Hulett sales came with a ticket that was for Brooker 613 (6d mule with the obverse mark Crown over Bell over Portcullis) and to my knowledge is the only one known. I had marked that as a buy when it appeared, but the ticket (613) was for a different coin to the one I bought, so dutifully sent it back to be reunited with the right coin. However, the coin I really wanted didn't appear in any sale as far as I could see, so where is it? I know John had Brooker 613 because I saw it when visiting on one occasion, hence the interest. Humpf.

      I've experienced both sides of a "lost ticket". In 2014 bought an ex-JP Mass collection (#1275) short-cross penny from eBay and it was delivered with the wrong ticket. The seller said he'd send me the correct ticket so I returned it to him, at which point he told me he couldn't find the original ticket. I do have Mass 574 & 1241 with their original tickets though.
