Hi. I have a hard time to identify this Sicilian follis - is it a Constans II & Constantine IV (SB 1109) or a Heraclius & Heraclius Constantine - it seems no match to the counterstamped SB 882-884 ? Weight is 3.8g. What do you think ?
Thanks

Hi carpatic,

All the Sicilian folles of Heraclius are countermarked coins originating elsewhere.

Your coin is instead Constans II, reference SBCV 1109.
