The Antoninus Pius coin initially struck me as a Limes Denarius, but considering that these posthumous issues were minted in Rome, this seems unlikely.

My understanding of the Limes Denarius genre is that they are generally regarded as having being struck (or cast) at or beyond the outer reaches of the Empire in imitation of official issues. So long as the maker had access to an original to copy (even if from far away Rome), I'd think any type of the era ought to be possible.
