[QUOTE="Roman Collector, post: 8247696, member: 75937"]What a cool coin, [USER=82616]@David Atherton[/USER]! It's in a marvelous state of preservation, too! I have only two brockages -- both obverse brockages -- and they are of Faustina II, of course! ;) This one is a provincial. [IMG]https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/faustina-jr-provincial-brockage-jpg.1303613/[/IMG] Faustina II, AD 147-175. Roman provincial Æ 23.9 mm, 7.93 g, 12 h. Uncertain Balkan mint, c. AD 161-165. Obv: ΦΑVCΤΕΙΝΑ CΕΒΑCΤΗ, draped bust, right, wearing circlet of pearls. Rev: Brockage of obverse. And this one is an imperial issue. [IMG]https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/faustina-jr-mb-brockage-jpg.1303615/[/IMG] Faustina II, AD 147-175. Roman Æ dupondius, 13.10 g, 24.8 mm, 12 h. Rome, c. AD 161-165. Obv: FAVSTINA AVGVSTA, draped bust, right, wearing stephane. Rev: Brockage of obverse.[/QUOTE]
