I agree! It also has the EΩN in large letters like the original.
Excellent searching. (I simply went with the three letters, sorry.)

thanks it was the first time i completely found one on my own! beginners luck!

wasnt easy but there is only so many roman coins of females

and they all have different hair bun style!

what tipped me off was the Roman woman look.( profile). yet it had greek letter E and Omega symbol( which was rare i am sure) Never saw either symbol on a western roman imperial coin before.
