Deja Vu! I cannot answer your question concerning a mule coin. However, in over 50 years of collecting mostly US coins, 2 1944 S copper coins showed up in a grab bag purchased last week that I had never seen the design used by the military in 1944 on a Philippines coin. PM ne and I will ship you one if wanted to go with your coin.
Thank you to all who replied. I do have an example of the 1 centavo in my collection SchwaVB57, but appreciate your kind offer to supply one.
