<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Caesar_Augustus, post: 4879364, member: 87659&quot;]I noticed coins from Lugdunum share the same portrait style for many rulers. This points towards an engraver who had a long career at the mint, making dies for multiple rulers and their families. Check out this coin of Fausta, which has the same portrait style as yours: </p><p><br /></p><p><b>Fausta</b></p><p>AE Follis</p><p><img src="https://badlight.github.io/josephscoins/images/fausta1/fausta1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>324 - 325 A.D., Lugdunum Mint, 1st Officina</p><p>3.180g, 20.1mm, 12H</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Obverse:</b> FLAV • MAX • FAVSTA AVG,</p><p><i>Bust of Fausta, waved hair, mantled, right</i></p><p><br /></p><p><b>Reverse:</b> SALVS REI-PVBLICAE,</p><p><i>Salus, veiled, draped, standing front, head left, holding two children in her arms</i></p><p><br /></p><p><b>Exergue:</b> -/-//PLG</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>Provenance:</b> Ex.
