<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2984804, member: 19463"]Just to show severe damage is possible, this Clodius Albinus as Augustus reverse clash not only shows incuse letters at the bottom and border dots at the top but raised metal cud at upper right where it seems a chunk fell out of the die. I might have thought that would have been enough to retire the die but perhaps they needed coins and did not have a spare ready to go. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]735014[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
