[QUOTE="curtislclay, post: 4561316, member: 89514"]1934 Wreath Crown's aureus is a mule, since it erroneously has P P on both sides, as already noted by Cohen/Feuardent 501 who first published such a coin. It is from an old obv. die, which should have been retired when the mint decided to move Hadrian's title P P from the obv. legend to the rev. legend. The same rev. die correctly coupled with an obv. die without P P: Calicó 1246. The new RIC number for your coin is 1056 (R2), listing specimens in Paris, Naples, and Calicó 1247 = NAC 78, 943. Abdy's date: c.129-130 AD.[/QUOTE]
