If you have the old certificate you could use two IP numbers and use
mod_proxy to divert to the new site (on a different IP number). Of course,
if the old certificate has expired then you'll still get a warning about the
old certificate.
The only other solution is to buy another certificate for your old domain
and again use mod_proxy to divert to the new site. There is no other
solution, as any other solution would break the whole principle of
certifying the authenticity of domains (which is what your verisign
certificate does).
