India 1835 to 1840 – William IV – Half Anna Mule

 

A mule exists between the obverse of the Bombay Presidency half anna and the reverse of the uniform coinage 1835 half anna. This was presumably prepared in the Bombay Mint, which continued to issue the Bombay Presidency copper coins up until 1844. Pridmore records the coin in copper, but the only known specimen is in silver [1].
