    This is my favorite Roman empress Faustina elder, looking very elegant veiled and draped, minted by Antoninus Pius after her death. Reverse shows the Temple Diva Faustina that still stands in the Roman Forum. AE Sestertius 25gm, 33mm, Rome 141 AD, RIC 1115. db_file_img_30096_478x230 (2).jpg

    The thread is a few years old now and the site may have converted the images to save space? Anyone know?

    It may be your internet bandwidth. These all come up FULL image for me. However, sometimes when I view pics on my iPhone or iPad on other WiFi spots, there may be bandwidth problems which thumbnail the pics.

    SELF EDIT: Oops, looks like others answered the pic prob for you.

    Cool old thread!!! It started just as I began searching for a forum discussing ancients.

    I was wondering about the 'thumb nail' stuff too LOL
