I had to look that one up, never heard of it.

"For those unaware of the meaning of the term mule, it is described as a coin mistakenly created with the obverse die of one coin and the reverse die of another coin. The terms origin refers to the offspring of a male donkey and female horse. Mule coins are generally rare and worth more than standard versions.

The two silver coins affected by the error are the 2014 £2 Britannia silver bullion coin and the 2014 £2 Lunar Year of the Horse silver bullion coin. The Royal Mint estimates that approximately 17,000 Britannia silver coins were struck with the obverse intended for the Lunar coin and approximately 38,000 Year of the Horse silver coins were struck with the obverse intended for the Britannia coin."

I not long ago picked one of the Brit’s up,  graded in a slab.

I don’t normally go for graded coins but picking up a mule seems like it may be a good long term investment
