@maridvnvm - Many thanks.
It is very nice to hear this, especially from such a well-known expert on eastern mints as you are.

Awesome coin!

Doug Smith, formerly active on CCF as @dougsmit, actively collected Emesa mint denarii of Septimius Severus (among many other coins); he has an extensive page on assorted early varieties, but I wasn't able to find yours on it. Not sure whether that means it's rare.

I didn't check the COS I-I category because it was clear that your coin had COS II together, but this does seems to be the closest to your coin that his page has.

@january1may - There are two denarius on wildwinds.com (https://www.wildwinds.com/coins/ric...erus/t.html)
with COS II together.
