Seeing your coin reminded me of a project I was working on for a while but never finished. I had it in mind to get an example of this type for Delmatius from every mint that issued one for him. I have all but Lyons, Trier, and Aquilea. However, for two mints, Thessalonica and Nicomedia, the name of this Caesar was spelled with an A on some coins and an E on others:
FL DALMATIVS NOB CAES (Nicomedia only)
FL DALMATIVS NOB C (Thessalonica only)
FL DELMATIVS NOB C (both mints) as on your coin here.

I have both types for Thessalonica but for Nicomedia I have only the first, with the "A" spelling. So if I was on the ball, I would have been a contender for your coin.

At $11 - nice catch!
