<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Michael K, post: 3565734, member: 78298&quot;]<font size="4">A</font>n example of a rare error for 1918, where the obverse die was muled with the reverse die intended for the twenty centavos. The error is subtle, as the two dies are very similar, but careful study reveals the shield of the mule to be wider than the normal issue. This mule is the most valuable five centavos in the Philippine series. A similar error occurred in reverse on the 1928&nbsp; twenty centavos.</p><p><br /></p><p>5 g, copper-nickel, 21.3 mm diameter.</p><p>4g, silver, 20.86 mm.</p><p><br /></p><p>1st photo regular. 2nd photo mule.</p><p>I see that the OP coin date matches the small date on the mule,</p><p>and the regular coin has a large date. That seems like an easier marker</p><p>than the shield.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]948528[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]948529[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
