<p>[QUOTE=&quot;thejewk, post: 4030978, member: 100136&quot;]A lifetime Faustina is on my (long) list of wants for the year. </p><p><br /></p><p>I find Faustina the elder an unusual contrast to the coinage of Marcus Aurelius and Faustina the younger in the same time period.&nbsp; In the later two cases, the portraiture constantly changes and develops as they both age throughout the long reign of Antoninus Pius. Faustina, however, is almost frozen in time due to the short amount of time that she lived as Augusta, and then the image is immortalised through the extensive Diva coinage. </p><p><br /></p><p>Now I think about it, Antoninus Pius&#039;s portraiture is fairly static as well.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
