<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Justin Lee, post: 4660275, member: 87404&quot;]This is a Faustina I denarius that really isn&#039;t anything special, but for me was made special. I had my now wife have it on her (tucked away in her dress) during our wedding as her &quot;something old&quot;. It was chosen due to the devotion between Antoninus Pius and her (especially when compared to many other Roman emperors&#039; marriages) as a good omen for us, and for the reverse type -- Fortuna helping to guide or navigate us towards good fortune (martial bliss) for eternity.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://iomegacollectionhome.files.wordpress.com/2019/04/collagemaker_20181229_235943315.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><font size="2"><b>Faustina I, Wife Of Antoninus Pius,</b></font></p><p><font size="2"><b>AR Denarius, Rome Mint, Struck 147 AD (after her death in 140 AD)</b></font></p><p><font size="2">Obverse: DIVA FAVSTINA, diademed and draped bust of Faustina I right</font></p><p><font size="2">Reverse: AETER-NITAS, Fortuna standing facing, head left, holding globe in right hand and rudder in left</font></p><p><font size="2">References: RIC 348, RSC 6, BMC 360</font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
