She has some of the more attractive portrait coins. I own several, congrats.

 

Beautiful Faustina Junior portrait indeed.

 

Lovely portrait! I'd quite like to get one like that to replace mine.

 

That is a lovely portrait of the young Faustina issued under her dad.

I like the 1st one best. "She's Purty."

 

Here is a Faustina Jr. Rev: FECVNDITAS Fecunditas standing front, head r., holding sceptre and child.

Like is not a strong enough word. That coin has tremendous eye appeal!

 

Very nice details.
