Must-See Belgian Congo Mule
I have just received my newest Belgian Congo rarity back from PCGS. This is a must see coin. It is a 1936/1922 1 Franc Mule.
It is the size of a 1 franc coin in nickel-bronze (the composition of the 5 francs coin of 1936). One side is the design of a 1936 5 Francs (KM24) and the other side a 1922 1 Franc (KM21). Weight before slabbing was 9.23 g
This is truly a very cool coin and probably unique or close to it. I was pleased to see PCGS accurately confirm this rarity. It is graded MS62.
The coin is located on my Belgian Congo Part II list toward the bottom of my list. There are pics posted as well.
I do not know if this was a planned pattern or something a mint employee had fun making. Either way, it is an awesome addition to my rockin' collection!
