<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cmezner, post: 3374929, member: 87809&quot;]This coin has a double strike error on the reverse. One can see part of the pearled border perpendicular to where it should have been struck. Double struck ancient coins are fairly common, as they were hand struck without any collar holding the coin in place so the coin could easily move when being struck. </p><p><br /></p><p>Elagabalus - Invictus Sacerdos, Denarius</p><p>Rome, 220 - 222 AD</p><p>17 mm, 3.42 g</p><p>Ref.: RIC IV Elagabalus 88b;</p><p>Ob.: IMP ANTONINVS PI(V)S AVG Laureate and draped bust right</p><p>Rev.: INVI(CT)VS SACERDOS A(VG) Elagabalus standing left, sacrificing over altar, holding patera in r. hand and club in l., bull lying down behind altar; in left field star</p><p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]895250[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]895251[/ATTACH]</p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
