Lot 1128
Lot 31128 > USA Administration Mule 5 Centavos 1918-S MS61 NGC, San Francisco mint, KM173, Basso-113a, Allen-4.08b. A rare and highly desirable variety of the regular circulation issue 1918 5 Centavos, the result of pairing the obverse die of the 5 Centavos with the 20 Centavos reverse die. Because of the relatively minor difference between the reverses of the 5 Centavos and 20 Centavos this error was not discovered for some time. However, it is now regarded as a highly important variety within Philippine coinage, ensuring that Mint State examples such as the present offering receive a high degree of attention when encountered on auction.
