Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 03/16/2013 10:52 am Looks like Julia Domna to me. The give away is the hair I find - then again, I dont have many female coins. The hairstyle changed and the empress consort would be kee[ing up with the tippy top of fashion so you see the hair change over time. Report this Post to the Staff

Gil-galad Pillar of the Community United States 2044 Posts	Posted 03/16/2013 1:44 pm Yes, Julia Domna. Let's see the reverse of the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
FVRIVS RVFVS Pillar of the Community United States 3446 Posts	Posted 03/16/2013 1:51 pm Looks like you can read the full title of AVGVSTA on right hand side. Of the 'army' of Julia's only Domna and Mamaea had the title. Of the two only Domna had a 'bun' on the back of head. Report this Post to the Staff
MetDet71 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1569 Posts	Posted 03/16/2013 6:48 pm Thanks for the id on that one, good point about the hair!! Here is the back of the coin. Looks a little shabby at the moment, will be giving it a bit of a clean up soon. You will never soar like an eagle if you hang around with turkeys..... Report this Post to the Staff
