2000 D Sacagawea dollar muled with South Carolina quarter reverse?

1madman

I was browsing through coin facts and noticed a new listing for a sac dollar muled with a South Carolina quarter (pcgs coin number 893257). Does anyone have any info on this coin? Does it even exist? Fred and/or Jon, I would love to get your input.

Yes, it's a very famous "error".

This is the first that I’ve heard of this mule and don’t see any online references to it other than the PCGS page linked above. I don’t think I would consider it famous.

I would like to learn more about it.

Sorry, I was thinking of the state quarter obverse.

I, also, have never seen the SC mule.

This is probably what the OP is referring to. Just slightly mistaken.

I’m not referring to the well known George Washington quarter obverse, muled with the Sacagawea reverse. This new discovery apparently is a Sacagawea dollar obverse, muled with a South Carolina quarter reverse.

I’m wondering where PCGS got the idea/information about this coin either actually existing or even possibly existing? The pop report does not show any census for the coin, but why would they create a coin # and slot for this if it doesn’t exist?

This could be one of the most significant error coins of all time, so I hope some information might emerge on this tread.

No picture but here's a link to that coin #.

Interesting!

Now that would be a major error if certified.... I have not seen any articles or reports confirming this coin exists.... However, if it does, @FredWeinberg will know about it. Cheers, RickO
