I used to collect women on Roman coins, I sold that collection decades ago but it turns out I still had this one. It was purchased in the NOL days from Wayne Sayles. The flip did not give enough info and I no longer have the books needed for the coin. I could spend some time to look it up on the web but I figured someone here would know right away. The flip said Faustina I AE Sestertius Bust right/Annona aVF/F $55 I just weighed it 26.3 gm and 31.63 mm for size. Any additional reference info would be appreciated. Pretty green patina.
