<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Roman Collector, post: 2560585, member: 75937&quot;]These coins are quite common, so I decided to put together a set of Faustina Junior coins from Pautalia in Thrace depicting a variety of reverse types. All of them are about 21 mm in size and all bear the obverse inscription ΦΑVCΤΕΙΝΑ CΕΒΑCΤΗ and the&nbsp; reverse inscription ΟVΛΠΙΑC ΠΑVΤΑΛΙΑC.</p><p><br /></p><p>Post your provincials from Pautalia, especially Faustina Junior.

Its listing reads, &quot;Pallas Nikephoros, seated l., resting on spear, at her side, shield.&quot; The confusion arises because the Athena holding Nike coin has no shield; on the coin which has the shield, Athena is holding an owl.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]551873[/ATTACH] </p><p>5.99 gm; 20.1 mm</p><p>Hygeia standing r., feeding a serpent from a patera.</p><p>BMC-11; Ruzicka-121; Moushmov-4115; Varbanov-2848</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]551874[/ATTACH] </p><p>6.28 gm; 23.6 mm</p><p>Tyche standing l., holding rudder and cornucopiae.</p><p>BMC-12; Ruzicka-147; Moushmov-4114</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]551875[/ATTACH] </p><p>6.0 gm; 21.0 mm</p><p>Hera standing l., holding patera and scepter.</p><p>BMC-13; Ruzicka-69; Moushmov-4118; Varbanov-4478[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
