Claudius II Ae ... maybe ... could use a bit of help

Been slowly going through some old coins I put away many years ago and came across this one. It appears to be an antoninianus of Claudius Gothicus but can't find it. I know it's rough in spots but I've never seen this reverse on a later Roman Ae.

Obv: IMP C CLA.. (maybe): Radiate bust right
Rev: (VICT)ORIA ● C ● IIII; Victory standing left holding a palm branch over shoulder and captives to left, below shield, and right below. (note: not sure about the final lettering on the reverse legend)

I agree. It certainly looks like Claudius II Gothicus. I can't find a Victory reverse like it anywhere though. It looks almost like a reverse from Gallienus:


But Victory isn't the same.

Ah, "M" not III!
I looked at RIC but couldn't find it!
You are truly a master

 

@Victor_Clark : Thanks, that's it. Very much appreciated.

 

GERM? I can't read it either.

 

Well now I don't feel so bad
