gtkwml Valued Member United States 224 Posts	Posted 12/11/2018 6:41 pm Thanks Bob. If you think so too, I'll call it Faustina II. This one and the Tiberius clear out some "No ID" coins that I had tucked away years ago and forgot about. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34461 Posts	Posted 12/11/2018 8:25 pm @gtkwml, I'm not super-knowledgeable about these, but your coin sure looks a lot like my Semis from Faustina with Juno on the rev: "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff
gtkwml Valued Member United States 224 Posts	Posted 12/11/2018 10:29 pm Thanks, Spence. I'm feeling pretty confident now! This coin was put aside in a catch-all drawer for years. I figured I'd never identify it. But then I discovered this awesome forum, which has added so much enjoyment to my coin cleaning and identifying. Thanks to all of you fine and knowing folks!
