    Perhaps you were thinking of Britney, nope it's even better, a matching pair of Otacilia Severa mint errors. Otacilia brockage coins are rare; but to own a die matched pair is inconceivable. I recently acquired a second specimen, enjoy.

    Cool. For the life of me, I'll never know how you specialist folk spot stuff like die links. I mean, yeah, I have a general idea, but that sort of thing is way beyond me.

    As to inconceivable... :p

    Not a Princess Bride nerd, then, I take it? Just me? OK. ;)

    I'm a fan of anything with Andre the Giant in it.

    Wow, the mint employee must have particularly sloppy, or maybe he just fancied double headed coins ;)

    Die matched is pretty cool.

    My only ancient brockage is an Augustus bronze RPC 129
