Abstract
(type = Description)
Brockage, such as this one, provide an interesting view of mistakes made during the manufacture process of struck coins. Scholars debate whether the image of a man wearing a helmet is the Roman god Mars or Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus, also known as Scipio Africanus.
