<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2264665, member: 19463&quot;]What I find interesting here is the fact that my mule fourree also has a Gragulus obverse but with an M. Aburius reverse.&nbsp; I hear a lot about transfer dies but some I have seen so labeled did not strike me as certain matches.&nbsp; Certainly mine is not the same die as TIF&#039;s.&nbsp; Were either transferred or are both cut by someone well skilled and using the other as a guide?&nbsp; The modern transfer methods were not available back then but they may have had other ways. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]450212[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>At the show Friday, a dealer had a fourree Republican priced at $150.&nbsp; That is absurd.&nbsp; When I bought mine, they were considered uncollectible by everyone save fools.&nbsp; I paid $25 to a dealer I never patronized (because he was so overpriced) because I already owned solid coins of both types and thought the mule was interesting. TIF&#039;s coin is as nice as they get.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
