GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 09/26/2011 9:07 pm I agree with Kitkat Here is a example of a U.S mule coin. A 2000 Sacagawea dollar coin, with the obverse of the Washington quarter. The planchet is correct for the dollar coin and the correct reverse die was used. The obverse Washington quarter obverse die was used by Mistake. http://www.smalldollars.com/dollar/page21a.html Report this Post to the Staff

1cent Pillar of the Community Canada 1051 Posts	Posted 09/28/2011 01:48 am A mule is the offspring that results from a male donkey and a female horse (this would be a hinny if the genders were reversed). A "mule" coin is just an adaptation of that, the result of two things (dies in the case of coins) that were generally not meant to be paired together. Report this Post to the Staff
