fioti Pillar of the Community United States 4212 Posts	Posted 05/31/2019 12:59 pm If I'm understanding your question, British Honduras became a crown colony in 1884. The Queen's exact same portrait has appeared on dozens of countries coins. No wait, I guess I'm still not understanding Report this Post to the Staff
Mr T Pillar of the Community Australia 2180 Posts	Posted 06/01/2019 04:18 am What are the differences between the obverses? The pictures aren't big enough to see any major differences (alignment of design looks the same at a glance). Report this Post to the Staff
Nevol Formerly nancyc Australia 5385 Posts	Posted 06/01/2019 06:45 am No noticeable difference between the 2 obverses posted. What is it that you think makes the top one a mule? life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved Report this Post to the Staff
zookeeperz Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 698 Posts	Posted 06/02/2019 05:53 am This isn't going to clarify that it is a mule because the sample of coins is so small. But so far all SS one cents I have seen have two strands of hair behind the ear curling down wards.The honduras obverse doesn't it has one long strand curling up.The only thing that is conclusive and pretty obvious there are different obverses at play here and that the possible mule coin has all the traits of a Honduras obverse than a SS obverse. It could just be a case of different varieties rather than a mule but the possibility of a mule is more than possible. British and commonwealth coinage are awash with mules of one type or another.
