The Mulan Canceled Coins

The three dies in the Mulan set were each canceled by a Tinker Bell image which was etched in the field of each die. A "RETIRED" back stamp was also used by Disney when they pressed these canceled coins. The Mulan dies were then etched with the word "Retired" over the gripper and sold by Disney Auctionears. The new owner pressed ten cents, nickels and dimes with this added mark. None have back stamps. A vertical coin ridge on the CDL0122 type 2 coins is evidence of a crack.

Coins with back stamps that read "Retired", but, have no "Retired" at the grip, are Type 1 coins. If your coin has the small "Retired" at the grip and no back stamp, it is one of the scarce type 2 coins.

This is a close up of the Tinker Bell stamp used to cancel the DL0121, DL0122 and DL0123 Mulan pressed penny set. For clarification we have added an outline of a similar Tinker Bell image to the left of the canceling mark.
This is a representative image of the Tinker Bell canceling mark used on this set of coins. However, each coin type in this set may have a slightly different canceling mark as each coin type has a separate and slightly unique engraving or etching. (See also CDL0121-123 type 2 coins.)

DETAIL
This is a close up of the small bit of "RETIRED" as seen on a "standard" roll coin. It was added to the DL0121, DL0122 and DL0123 Mulan pressed penny set after the first coins were pressed. This mark and a blank back are the defining differences between the first and second Mulan canceled coin types. Click on the image to see a large close up of this coin showing both the "RETIRED" and Tinker Bell etchings used to cancel this die set.
