Thoughts on this provincial AE

    I was hoping someone with a better Provincial coinage library than I have could help confirm the attribution of this coin: 19.5 mm, 6.7 g. I was thinking Severan era from Thessalonica, Macedonia. There's no legend visible on the obverse, and the reverse legend is ΘεCC-AΛONI-KεΩΝ in three lines enclosed in a wreath. The problem I am running into is that all Severan era examples I can find have the reverse legend in two lines. The only example I can find with three lines is a coin minted in Nero's name. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
