NSMutableArray addObject: -[__NSArrayI addObject:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance

I have tried to initialize my NSMutableArray 100 ways from Sunday, and NOTHING is working for me. I tried setting it equal to a newly allocated and initialized NSMutableArray, just allocating, initializing the variable by itself, every combination I could think of and always the same result.

Here's the code:

Object.h

NSMutableArray *array;

@property (copy) NSMutableArray *array;

Object.m

@synthesize array;

if ( self.array ) {
    [self.array addObject:anObject];
}
else {
    self.array = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:anObject, nil];
}

NOTE: In debug "anObject" is NOT nil at time of execution...

I have tested anObject and it isThe initialization works just fine, but I keep getting the error below when I try to addObject: to self.array.

Does anyone have any idea what's going wrong?
