<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Victor_Clark, post: 3515124, member: 10613&quot;]Here is a recent auction win that I think is pretty interesting. It is an unofficial FEL TEMP overstruck on a posthumous issue of Constantine I. The coin below is the undertype, a posthumous issue from Antioch.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]933004[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>and here is the overstruck coin rotated and showing the undertype-</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]933005[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>These posthumous coins were struck until about A.D. 347 in Antioch and replaced in A.D. 348 with the FEL TEMP coinage. The coin below is a FEL TEMP from Antioch. It is 24mm, so quite a bit larger than the 15mm posthumous coin, but there is a smaller 17mm module FEL TEMP, but I am using this example because it has a nice star in left field and a cool spiral shield...though that has nothing to do with the overstrike.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]933007[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>and the overstuck coin rotated to show the FEL TEMP overstrike</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]933008[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
