 | | Annia Galeria Faustina, daughter of Marcus Annius Verus, married a young man (Titus Aurelius Fulvus Boionius Antoninus) between 110-115 A.D. Two decades later, he became Rome's Emperor, and the Senate honored her with the title of Augusta. |
 | | A sentimental issue, struck after she died in 141 A.D., and before her daughter, also named Faustina, was given the title of Augusta, in 147, upon the birth of her first child. |
 | | Unfortunately, Faustina died only a few years later, in 141 A.D. The Senate deified her, complete with a temple and priestesses. |
