[QUOTE="Roman Collector, post: 8231388, member: 75937"]Thanks for your kind words and for sharing a photo of your coin. You might be interested in [URL='https://www.cointalk.com/threads/dubious-denarii-of-faustina-i-in-ric-and-cohen.329713/']this post[/URL] from three years ago, which discusses how an example of your denarius may have had its corn ears removed by tooling to make the "Juno standing right, holding scepter and lowering left hand" variety (RIC 364). I'm not convinced that RIC 364 even exists. I think, for example, I see traces of corn ears on this one that indicate they were removed by tooling.
