<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rexesq, post: 1187753, member: 5739&quot;]Nice one <b>stainless</b>! She looks quite beautiful in this portrait, unlike her mother in many of her portraits used on coins, no offense meant. I agree with doug about the lighting from above maybe giving a bit of a better look, but the coin looks great for me. I have wanted a Faustina II for some time.... I would like one of her Tetradrachmai from Alexandria if I can find a nice one, but I see beautiful portraits of her on denarii all the time.... very striking portrait on your coin.... a nice skinny fragile feminine neck, good features, still retaining alot of detail. I like it alot, and with Faustina II coins, I agree with you (except in special cases with rare reverses and what not) about the attractive portrait being key.</p><p>Nice pickup and addition to your collection![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
