<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3031957, member: 19463&quot;]Most collectors like pretty coins but I find a fascination in some of the other extreme. Since this is a minority opinion, I won this piece of scrap metal for $9.01 on eBay.&nbsp; It is a&nbsp; Byzantine 40 nummi of Constans II Sear 1109 overstruck on an earlier type I would like to identify (help?).&nbsp; The striking really squished the coin creating a very ragged flan as is quite common for coins of Constans II.&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]755603[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I already had one of these similar but not as extreme an not as impaired by the undertype detail.&nbsp; Why I wanted another, I can not explain.&nbsp; Now I see through online resources that these are in no way unusual and not even a little extreme in their ragged edges. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]755607[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>These are common coins.&nbsp; Who else has one?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
