<p>[QUOTE="Marsyas Mike, post: 8262908, member: 85693"]Well, it's an old thread, and it is not Friday, but it is Faustina - and what I think is my first Beckmann Type 3 hairstyle. Even more exciting, I am pretty sure it is an obverse die match to the [USER=75937]@Roman Collector[/USER] OP sestertius.
