Like Gil-galad, my only four women coins are nowhere as nice as the ones posted above (limited budget here), but I'll post them anyway. Helena, minted in London  Faustina I  Salonina  Aelia Eudoxia (I haven't taken a picture of mine yet so I'm putting the example wildwinds has, its Sear 4241, minted in Nicomedia. My example is black in color and has better reverse details  Edited by VisigothKing

Those coins ain't bad, and better than my two examples. The Salonina coin has nice details.

My favorite empress is Julia Domna but picking which is my favorite coin of hers is tough. Best Provincial: Alexandria  Most Rare: Emesa denarius with VICTOR IVST reverse but not a mule since the reverse is not known for Septimius either.  |
