I know it is a long bow to draw, but by any stretch of the imagination, could this Chi-Rho https://www.acsearch.info/search.ht...=1&es=1&ot=1¤cy=usd&order=0 pin down the coin below to Justin 1. It is the only Large Chi-Rho, with Γ- E; in fields that I can locate. Any help or advice appreciated.

I think you got this perfect actually. If you look at the reference coins, on the obverse, where there are no letters and in front of the bust, you see the orange in your coin, to me that means there are no letters there as well, that a different coin could have had. So you have a very good match in my opinion. Either way, you know you got the greek G. Id not worry about the weight, here is one close to yours:
