I have been searching wildwinds and acsearch.info for several days looking for some identification data without success. I can make out letters that "look" like "DIVIAOG?AVG" on the obverse and several letters on the reverse that look like "OTEST" with a bust right. The coin is 30mm and weighs 8.5 grams. Help please....

Well from the position of the "DIVI AVG F AVG" and the "POTEST" on the other you are in this world anyway.

I did some work on the image to show the "S" of the "S C" in case you are having a hard time seeing it.

THANK YOU @louisvillekyshop I still do not see the "S", but I so agree with your analysis of my coin. I actually thought there was a bust on the obverse? I spent two days looking for a coin with two busts...... My eyes aren't what they were. Thank you again.

I inverted all light dark and all dark light, then highlighted the "S C" Correct position for the POTEST in the example coin.
