<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rexesq, post: 1198343, member: 5739&quot;]Lots of talk of Roman Empresses lately (Mat <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> ) coins which I too have a fondness for. So I though I would make a thread where we can all post our nicest or favorite or <u><b>ANY</b></u> Roman Empress coins, from <u>any</u> period during Roman Imperial times. I will start out with some Bronzes of Julia Mamaea, and some Silver Antoninianii of Marcia Otacilia Severa, Herennia Etruscilla as well as some Antoninianii of Salonina..... some will have to be in my second post due to the 5 pic upload limit per post..... enjoy, and don&#039;t be shy about posting your own, <u>any</u> and <u>all</u> Roman Empress pics are welcome <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>*******************************</p><p>--------</p><p>first and second pics: Julia Mamaea - Venus Victrix Sestertius: </p><p>Julia Mamaea AE Sestertius. 228-9 AD. </p><p><br /></p><p>Weight: 24.9 grams. - Heavy.</p><p><br /></p><p>obv: JULIA MAMAEA AUGUSTA - Diademed and draped bust right, seen from the front. </p><p>rev: VENVS VICTRIX SC - Venus standing left holding helmet &amp; scepter, shield at feet.</p><p>--------</p><p>--------</p><p>third pic: Julia Mamaea - Felicitas Publica Sestertius</p><p>Julia Mamaea, Mother of Severus Alexander (AD 222 - 235)</p><p><br /></p><p>obv: JULIA MAMAEA AUGUSTA - Diademed and draped bust right.
