    I think I might have a variation of your Faustina II - if I am interpreting your photo correctly, it is an interesting reverse type - there are 2 versions, one with the torch pointing left (mine RIC 1716) and right (yours RIC 1715):

    Faustina II sest SIDERIBVS Oct 2018 (0).jpg

    (176-180 A.D.)
    Rome Mint

    DIVA FAVSTINA PIA, draped bust right / SIDERIBVS RECEPTA, Diana Lucifera standing left, crescent on shoulders, holding torch in both hands.
    RIC 1716; Cohen 216.
    (24.69 grams / 28 mm)
