His ae Fustina II for Pautalia should originally be the 4490 of Varbanov.
 Evidently the person who had to use the hammer or similar to give the minting had to be either drunk or I don't explain it.
 There are riveted coins, but this surpasses all of them, in fact present both on the obverse and on the reverse one overlapping of the overlapping obverse and reverse, so many that one does not understand anything.
I will post the face of the coin twice, in two different topics it deals in each topic of the obverse or reverse, to understand the only face of the coin that needs a rotation to see the two figures contained.
I don't think it takes fantasy to see them both.
 the second woman I presumed Faustina. this is the first side of the coin.
thank you for your opinions.
Regards

double strike with a turn over of the coin.

Nice example



The only thing I can read is ΟVΛΠ in the hair of Faustina (picture 2). This could be Pautalia (ΟVΛΠΙΑϹ ΠΑVΤΑΛΙΑϹ)
