    Hello everyone,

    I cant seem to find this coin listed in any database i know (Wildwinds,OCRE, Coins Project etc...).

    I have managed to read the obverse and this is all that I know so far:

    Obverse: "IMP CM AVR PROBVS P AVG" facing left holding scetper draped (in armor)
    Reverse: "P(IAE?)TAS AVG" horseman facing left captive next to horse, mint XXI, officina mark A(?) horseman holding spear"

    Attached photos.

    Hello,

    Here is your coin I think :
    https://probuscoins.fr/coin?id=1338
    IMP C M AVR PROBVS PF AVG H2 Bust
    ADVENTVS AVG /Δ//XXI
    Siscia, 2nd emission (277), 4th officina

    I'm not sure if the officina letter is alpha or delta on yours... If that's the case, it's the first officina.
