<B>1866 5C Shield Five Cent / Three Dollar Mule, Judd-531A, Pollock-596, Unique, PR62 PCGS.</B></I> This fantasy piece is a mule of the adopted Shield nickel obverse with the three dollar gold obverse. Struck in nickel with a plain edge. The ninth edition of the Judd reference speculates that this piece was made "probably outside the Mint." The nickel composition has dulled somewhat over time and today the piece has an even gray color. Remarkably well struck considering the composition with softness limited to the horizontal lines on the shield of the five cent side.<BR><I>Ex: William Hesslein; J.F. McCabe Collection (S.H. & H. Chapman, 6/1905); purchased by "Hy" from the McCabe Collection; Bowers and Ruddy Rare Coin Review, Spring 1975.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
