Happy Birthday Faustina-Post an Ancient!! 0

[Mohawk]

Hello all,

Today is Faustina the Younger's 1,891st birthday!!! In honor of my numismatic muse, I'd love to see everyone post an ancient if they have them.  Here's one of my favorite Faustina denarii, RIC# 507, to start us off:

Excellent idea, Tom! Although at odds with the rest of my collection, I do have something to share (RIC 934). It seems fitting that Antoninus Pius should make an appearance to celebrate his daughter’s birthday.

Now that is awesome Don!!! It's a great coin and it's her father.....Antoninus Pius certainly should make an appearance on his daughter's birthday!!! Thank you so much for sharing that piece, it's a beaut!!

Yes, indeed......in another 109 years.  In all honesty, I'm not worried about that one

This guy will worry about the bimillennial tribute for me.  He'll still be around.  I won't.  And, there, I Greenland Sharked my own thread this time!

Thanks for the heads up zadok......but I sadly do not have aureus money at the present time   But if I did......I'd be trying for sure.  Thanks for the heads up anyway.....that was an awesome thing to do and I appreciate it
