Beloved wife of the emperor Antoninus Pius, Annia Galeria Faustina was Augusta for just two years before she died in AD 141. Evidently distraught, Pius had her deified on an extensive series of commemorative coins, unprecedented in it’s scale and duration (at least a decade). In addition to the coinage, a temple was built in her honour in the Roman Forum. The legend on the obverse of this beautiful silver denarius reads ‘Diva Faustina’ and indicates her deification (Diva = ‘Divine’). On the reverse is a peacock; a bird associated to the Romans with the goddess Juno. Together with Jupiter and Minerva, Juno was worshipped in Rome as part of the Capitoline Triad of supreme deities. Goddess of marriage and childbirth, she was the protector and special counsellor of the state, and took a further role in safeguarding the women of Rome. That the peacock is specifically linked to Juno is affirmed in myth by Ovid in his Metamophoses, Book 1, where he relates the story of Jupiter, his lover Io, and his jilted wife Juno. Ovid tells us that after Jupiter was caught by his lover, she was turned into a pure white heifer by his enraged wife and set under the guard of Argus, the hundred-eyed watchman. Sent by Jupiter to free Io, Mercury distracted Argus by playing the pan-pipes and telling stories, eventually slaying the giant and freeing Io. To honour her faithful watchman, Ovid tells us that Juno transferred Argus’ eyes to the tail feathers of the peacock so as to preserve them forever. The peacock’s tail, circular like the vault of heaven when spread and jewelled as with stars, made the bird a natural symbol of the sky to which the dead ascend and hence of apotheosis and immortality. A fitting reverse therefore, to highlight Faustina’s place amongst the divine. Ex. Roma Numismatics E-Sale 74; Lot 914; Ex. Jesus Vico S.A. (2 March 1989); Lot 143.
