<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 6569327, member: 19463&quot;]That is definitely a die clash.&nbsp; Anyon interested in the difference is invited to see my page on the subject which includes my example of a restruck brockage, something I once thought did not exist. </p><p><a href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/brock.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/brock.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/brock.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Since I updated that page I did get one more coin that should have been shown there.&nbsp; Die clashes usually are found with damage on the reverse die (the upper die).&nbsp; This one shows damage to the obverse.&nbsp; Note the arm of Juno right of Mamaea&#039;s nose.&nbsp; My guess is that the strike without a blank between the dies was so strong that the reverse die was destroyed completely and replaced with a new die of the same design. You can decide if that makes sense or if I am just guessing. [ATTACH=full]1263853[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
