<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1671965, member: 19463&quot;]`[ATTACH]248831.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p>Magnentius Roman usurper c.350 AD with reverse of two victories holding a shield. What makes this a little unusual is that it is a flipover double strike with clear parts of the reverse showing on the obverse.&nbsp; What makes it very unusual is that the first strike of the coin was a brockage as shown by the fact that the understrike on the reverse is not portrait detail as expected on a flipover doublestrike but the same reverse design in incuse.&nbsp; Most clear is VO/V/MV in incuse but reversed just to the right of the raised (normal) strike of the inscribed shield.&nbsp; This coin has not yielded well to my best photo efforts but it is what it is.&nbsp; Unique?&nbsp; Possibly.&nbsp; Unusual? Very![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
