Very nice coin. So what are we saying this is, RIC VII Rome 165 officina T with badly deformed letter P in Left field and exergue?
To me it reads as D|R // A T for P|R // P T. Seems it would be in a great state of preservation even without the desert patina (though I'm not suggesting removing that).
