Very nice coin!
Thank you, Heavenly Father, for first loving us.
Herennia Etruscilla (Augusta, 249-251). AR Antoninianus . Rome, AD 250. Draped bust r., wearing stephane, set on crescent. R/ Pudicitia seated l., drawing veil and holding sceptre.
Herennia Cupressenia Etruscilla was an Augusta and later regent of the Roman Empire, married to Emperor Decius, and mother of Emperors Herennius Etruscus and Hostilian. She served as regent of the Roman Empire during the reign of her son Hostilian in 251.
Pudicitia ("modesty" or "sexual virtue") was a central concept in ancient Roman sexual ethics. The word is derived from the more general pudor, the sense of shame that regulated an individual's behavior as socially acceptable.
When I see a roman coin, I cant help myself, I must do the research.

That’s sick. Most of the ancient graded coins I’ve seen look boring. I really **** with that haha 💯
Welcome to the wonderful world of ancients.
Like so many areas of numismatics, ancients can be pretty addictive. (You have been warned.) 🙂
Enjoy! Congratulations on your first ancient.
Congratulations! That’s a great start into ancients.

Awesome looking!
I love those "splits" on your coin and mine.
There's nothing like original ways in everything.
