Elagabalus-From-Antioch? Elagabalus-From-Antioch?

AE ~19, reverse: large SC, above DE, below eagle, all in laurel wreath

Plant#2619 has that reverse for Elagabalus in Antioch ad Orotem, but with radiate head left and (seemingly) a shorter inscription.

GIC#3098 has laureate head of Elagabalus left but also seemingly a slightly shorter inscription - the reverse is a large DE in a laurel wreath.

Unfortunately have no access to BMC 20 atm, does anyone know if that is available for download anywhere?

Or does anyone have BMC 20 on hand?
GIC#3098 is BMC 20.205,449, so the coin should be close.

Or does anyone think that this is a different emperor?
All comments welcome.

Thanks.
He looks a little 'beefier' normally, but as per GIC he issued an AE23 with a reserve of large SC and eagle below, no mention of DE above though - really need to get hold of BMC.
