Description: | A cast ingot made by two denarii fused in semi molten state. The denarii cannot be identified, but the original shape of the coins has been retained despite the loss of detail to the faces from considerable heat. The coins may have been purposely melted to create an ingot of silver for later reused, but the process was interupted before they could complete liquify. Or the coins could have fused under 'accidental' circumstances such as a fire.
