You can not just copy the details for a coin and use it for your ID. I really doubt your coin weighs 18.90g. That is the one from acsearch. The fabric of the edges makes me suspect yours might be an 'as' or 1/4 of a sestertius and with that chunk missing might weigh more like 7g. Sestertii of Philip tend to have a more squared edge and often have a side with a straight edge like it was cut off. Asses often have more of a taper like yours. You need to weigh yours. It is hard to tell scale from a photo. http://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=1822383 The one in the link is listed as VF which I think is a bit high for the wear it shows. Yours is closer to VG on the obverse but the reverse might be better.
Doug Smith You're right! My weighs about 7 grams. I did not finish weight happy new year…….. Thanks you
