United States Mule Mint Errors

Editor's Note: Saul Teichman is one of the top numismatic researchers. Here is his research on the known U.S. Mule Mint Errors.

A mule occurs when a coin is produced with mismatched dies. In some countries, the Mints use dies for different denominations with the same dimensions. In these instances, mules have been known to exist and are not that rare.

An example would be a New Zealand/Bahama mule where thousands were struck and they are worth $50 each. The obverse of a Bahama 5 Cent piece was muled with the reverse of a New Zealand 2 Cent piece.

On the other end of the spectrum are the extremely rare mules including a few from the United States. An example would be a mule with a Sacagawea Dollar reverse and a State Quarter obverse.
