Unlisted Faustina I as or dupondius with left-facing portrait
« on: October 31, 2012, 09:38:00 am »
Hi all,

Not in RIC or BMCRE -
not really my area of interest at all but thought it worth posting:

FAVSTINA AVG ANTONINI AVG PII P P, draped bust left

CONCORDIA AVG, Concordia standing left

Weight 11.55g. Similar to RIC III, 1125 but with bust left

I can find no references to bust left asses or dupondii of Faustina I struck during her lifetime.

Regards,

Adrianus
