An interesting find.

The most common of this type would have to be LIBER AVG.

I don't have a LIBERTA AVG but I do have a LIERTA(sic) AVG

Another nice coin and another series that I actively collect.

Here is a small sample of this rare obverse legend variety from my colection. I have more but these will give an indication of my passion for these.

Here is the same obverse die:-
BONETAE AVG
S.-Severus-Denarius-Laodicea-Ad-Mare-Mint-Ric-482-Liberta-Avg
MONETAE AVG
S.-Severus-Denarius-Laodicea-Ad-Mare-Mint-Ric-482-Liberta-Avg
S.-Severus-Denarius-Laodicea-Ad-Mare-Mint-Ric-482-Liberta-Avg
VICTOR IVST AVG
S.-Severus-Denarius-Laodicea-Ad-Mare-Mint-Ric-482-Liberta-Avg
LEG X-IIII GE-M M V / TR P COS
S.-Severus-Denarius-Laodicea-Ad-Mare-Mint-Ric-482-Liberta-Avg

There is also a different obverse die with the same legend
VICTOR IVST AVS
S.-Severus-Denarius-Laodicea-Ad-Mare-Mint-Ric-482-Liberta-Avg
FORTVNAE REDVCI
S.-Severus-Denarius-Laodicea-Ad-Mare-Mint-Ric-482-Liberta-Avg
MONETAE AVG
S.-Severus-Denarius-Laodicea-Ad-Mare-Mint-Ric-482-Liberta-Avg

I cannot find a reverse die match to your example to confirm the reverse legend reading.

A highly desirable coin.

@maridvnvm-Yesterday I received this coin that we discussed recently.
Upon closer examination of the denarius, I saw a strange stripe under the bust of the emperor on the obverse, which can be taken as I (Latin one)? The I in IMP is clear seen too. On the reverses of your BONETAE AVG coin, the stripe is also clearly visible.
Maybe you can attribute the coin as AVG II C I ? Or what could be explanation of this stripe (I stripe under the bust of the emperor on the obverse?
