I found that also while searching. It's close but different...the legend is not the same. Athena has shield on mine...obverse has different clothing...on reverse last three letters are COT...while I search I saw coins close with that ending from Aelia Capitonia and Nicopolis...but thanks Dan

@dlpmarius, perhaps you could post pics that are without the large borders of free space and with better lighting? With the current pics, I'm not sure that I can read much of anything for the legends. Thx!
