In numismatics, an overstrike describes a situation in which an existing coin rather than a blank is struck with a new design. This practice is now obsolete and generally occurred for two purposes. Overstriking was sometimes done for technical reasons when a first strike is unsatisfactory, or accidentally if the blank slips out of place or if the dies judder, resulting in a slight doubling of the design. However, sometimes old or worn coins were overstruck with new designs by later rulers or foreign states.

  • Een overslag kan in de numismatiek twee dingen betekenen: 1. * Een munt geslagen over een andere munt, dus zonder de oorspronkelijke munt om te smelten. Vaak zijn er nog sporen van de oorspronkelijke munt te zien. 2. * Een verandering van het jaartal op het stempel. Vaak zijn er nog sporen te zien van het oorspronkelijke cijfer. Vervalsers veranderen soms een niet zeldzaam jaartal van een munt in een zeldzaam jaartal op het muntplaatje. Dit is een vervalsing. (nl)

  • In numismatica con il termine sovrabattitura si indica quando, per battere una moneta, invece di un tondello appositamente preparato ex novo si usa un'altra moneta. La nuova moneta può essere o dello lo stesso tipo di quella vecchia o di un tipo completamente nuovo. I motivi possono essere svariati. Si può avere una sovrabattitura involontaria quando per un errore la moneta rimane nella sua sede e il conio viene ribattuto di nuovo. Oppure quando, nella monetazione al martello, si usano più colpi ma la moneta si muove leggermente. (it)

  • In numismatics, an overstrike describes a situation in which an existing coin rather than a blank is struck with a new design. This practice is now obsolete and generally occurred for two purposes. Overstriking was sometimes done for technical reasons when a first strike is unsatisfactory, or accidentally if the blank slips out of place or if the dies judder, resulting in a slight doubling of the design. However, sometimes old or worn coins were overstruck with new designs by later rulers or foreign states. In the ancient world, use of overstrikes was not uncommon, since the manufacture of flans was resource consumptive; thus a foreign or outdated coin could be overstruck with less investment than new mintage. Evidence of overstriking appears as early as about 500 BC when coins of Aegina were overstruck by the ancient city of Kydonia on Crete. In this case and many others, the overstrike can be a valuable aid to dating an ancient coin, an era when dates were not commonly affixed to the design. Due to a shortage of silver the mint of George III of Great Britain used Spanish silver dollars in the early 19th century, and overstruck the king's image and legends on them. (en)

Oppure quando, nella monetazione al martello, si usano più colpi ma la moneta si muove leggermente. A volte invece si usano monete vecchie o deteriorate per coniare una nuova moneta. Ciò capitò spesso nell'impero romano ma anche in periodi moderni. Ad esempio Giorgio III del Regno Unito usò delle monete spagnole agli inizi del XIX secolo o in Italia quando il tallero dell'Eritrea fu coniato usando le vecchia piastre del regno borbonico. (it)
