Ancient Rome 157AD Faustina Junior Silver Denarius VF-EF (VF-30)

Annia Galeria Faustina the Younger was Roman Empress from 161 as the wife of her cousin Marcus Aurelius to her death in 175/76. Faustina was the youngest child of Emperor Antoninus Pius (86-161AD) and Empress Faustina the Elder (c. 100-140AD). Faustina obtained the title of Augusta following the birth of her first child in 147AD, before her husband became Augustus himself in 161. Faustina is accused of instigating a revolt led by Avidius Cassius against her husband in 175.

Upon her death, Faustina was deified, her statue was placed in the Temple of Venus in Rome, and a temple was dedicated to her in her honour.
