    Hi everyone I’ve been collecting pennies for a couple years now and I came across a mule penny. At least I think it’s original. But that’s why I’m here to get professional and way more experience advise.

    That's not a mule.
    That's an altered Cent.

    That's not what a mule coin means.

    Someone somehow pressed the reverse of an old memorial cent on to the Obverse of that cent and left an incused impression.

    Hello and Welcome to Cointalk!
    In numismatics, a mule is a coin or medal minted with obverse and reverse designs not normally seen on the same piece.

    Somebody took that cent and another and squeezed the two in a vise. People do strange things to coins. Welcome to coin talk!

    Thank you all three of you for your replies I greatly appreciate it. I’m sorry for my misinterpretation of what a mule coin is. I suppose the person who did this got what they wanted. A person like me to look like a fool thinking he’s got something when he don’t. But honestly I enjoy collecting Pennie’s. Thank you for welcoming me. Oh I also have a couple of weird quarters that I got at two different locations and times but look the same I will post them in a few
