<p>[QUOTE="Bradley Trotter, post: 7294520, member: 101226"]About a week ago, I mentioned that I purchased a sestertius of Faustina Major in another thread, casually hoping it didn't become trapped in postal purgatory for the next few months. The last purchase I made from this particular dealer took almost a month to arrive from Germany. However, much to my astonishment, I actually received this coin only 10 days after initially purchasing it. Anyway, if you have any sestertii of Faustina I or any recent purchases that arrived quicker than expected, please don't hesitate to share.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1276375[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Faustina I (Senior)</p><p>AE Sestertius</p><p>After 141 A.D.</p><p>Obverse: DIVA FAVSTINA, draped bust right, hair coiled on top of head</p><p>Reverse: CERES, Ceres standing left, holding corn-ears and long, vertical torch; S-C across fields</p><p>Rome Mint</p><p>RIC 1128; Sear 4621.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
