Definición

• Surmoulage.  A second generation cast from an original pattern or cast original; a duplicate of a cast. In numismatics a more preferred term is after-cast, especially for the cast medals of the Renaissance. The term surmoulage is used, somewhat, as an evasion of the fact a cast item is an after-cast by persons who wish to deceive others who
  may be unfamiliar with the term.
