It is the same representation of Diana Lucifera as on sestertius ricIII,1628.There also , Diana has no crescent on her shoulders ;cfr the description of Ric for the setertius ; Diana standing l,holding torch with both hands .On the obverse , you have also the same inscription : Faustina Auguste .If you want , I can make a pic from my sestertius . Albert

Furius Rufus : looking my sestertii of Faustina Junior , I have another one with a representation of Diana standing right holding a torch in both hands and a crescent moon on her shoulders ; It is RIC1715,Cohen215,S5233, with the inscription : Sideribus recepta SC , it is a commemoratif coin (Diva Faustina Pia : Divine holy Faustina ) ,Faustina represented as Diana is welcomed by the stars .I think it is this Diana you mean . albert.

Hi ,
this is another denarius of Faustina with the correct inscription for the representation of Diana Lucifera .As your coin is unlisted as we suppose , then I think that the diecutter has made a mistake by mixing the reverse of two different denarii .By all means , for me it is an exceptional coin , very rare if not unique .In your place , I would contact the coin department of the British Museum ,they have the most recent documentation to check . albert

Thanks Albert & Ben for the information.
I have another Faustina jr that has the figure standing right holding a torch with both hands but this is a big lump
13.40g, is this like your other one Albert ?





No legend left on the reverse but I think you can make it out. I cant see a crescent on her shoulder though.

Hi Pish
Its a lot more like ric 1632.

Its got the same legend as the denarius
FAVSTINA AVGVSTA PII FIL.
That's what I base my search on, ric 1632 seems the best match that I have found so far.

you are right , it is RICIII1632 , a copper as,weight 10-12 gr albert
