    Welcome @Yuliyan Galinov. Your coin looks similar to this one of mine:

    Thanks @Bing. I think letters and also face are not similar. :/

    There are style variations because the dies were hand-engraved, and the coins themselves were struck by hand, no machines. Your coin is the same as the type Bing posted.

    Since this thread has been resurrected, here's my Phillip the Arab example that I recently got in @John Anthony 's last auction. Price was $45 which was less than what I paid for when I was a kid collecting in the 1980's. I bought a $85 ant with FORTUNA REDVX on the reverse, FDC condition, from Frank L. Kovacs, the noted San Francisco dealer. Unfortunately I no longer have that coin. Anyway, I was happy to get this new one:
