Well, then that rules out my next guess of Concordia + (some dude)

Also not Concordia, the two goddesses belong to each other, and represent something....

 too Would've sworn that Martin got it. Sure looks like it when I searched wildwinds for Pannoniae. I had looked through the Roman Provincial section of coinproject at all of the provinces beginning with and 'i' but there weren't many and some had no examples to show. Tried searching wildwinds and Google with Anoob's guess, still not getting any hits. Anoob-- can you post a link with more information about these purported Illyrius? Cool coin, regardless... looking forward to the reveal. EDIT: I was typing this will the answer was posted. Victorioso, can you post the full attribution so that we can learn about this interesting coin? Edited by ThisIsFun

Hi ThisIsFun, This coin is one of the only ones, which is representing Illyria ( I think so  ). It was minted by Probus after restoring the order in the Province of Illyria (278/79). Means defeating groups of invading Sarmatians. Antoninianus OV: Radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right, seen from back. Leg: IMP PROBVS INV AVG RV: Two women standing back to back, holding ensigns and raising their robes. Leg: RESTIT ILIVRICI Ex: XXI Siscia RIC 730 Edited by Victorioso
