    Thanks in advance for helping. From a bulk lot and unfortunately struck on a small, oblong flan.

    Siscia mint?? Other possibilities?

    Yep, great coin. I have two that are very similar that need to be fully identified. The coins with this style of reverse are some of. My favorites. Something about Jupiter holding Victory that tickles me.
