Message:: [QUOTE="Curtis, post: 24603957, member: 26430"]I don't think you did! We've gotten through most of the easy Royal Ladies, so maybe it's harder to find a "next" that someone will be able to post. Domitian's female family members didn't elicit and responses (Domitia would be easiest, especially on Roman Provincials, presumably some other family relations are on coins, at least one of the Domitilla's had coins but I don't think they're common). But someone may be able to suggest an easier one. Or something else. In the interests of reviving the thread, I'll throw in a "duplicate"... We've already seen Otacilia (wife of Philip "the Arab" and mother of Philip II), but this is my most recently acquire Empress-on-a-Sestertius.
