<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 4672519, member: 19463&quot;]I don&#039;t see how you could overstrike a Roman antoninianus with large Sasanian drachm dies without first hammering the coins flat and spread.&nbsp; This would probably make the flans a lot more ragged on the edges than what we see here but would erase all original detail.&nbsp; I don&#039;t see how the coins shown could have started as debased Roman antoniniani unless they were melted and new flans cast.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
