Dear friends,
I got the coin a week ago. The reverse is MONETAE .. AVG (with two dots). Weight 2,72 g. The obverse of the coin is worn, and I spent quit a lot of time to find the same obverse to attribute the denarius. I found the same obverse die pair in maridvnvm coin collection with FORTVNAE REDVC.
And now I can attribute the denarius as RIC 359A https://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric...359A?lang=en

A nice find. I think that I have another, clearer obverse die match, which is also relevant.

Obv:- IMP CAE L SEP SEV PERT AVG, laureate head right
Rev:- BONETAE AVG (sic), Moneta standing left, holding scales in right hand, cornucopiae in left
Minted in Emesa. A.D. 193
Reference(s) - RIC - (unlisted cf. 359A, which is scarce citing RD). RSC -. BMCRE - .



My BONETAE is useful to me as it provides a linkage to the AVG II C issue.0



which in turn has it's own MONETAE reverse



So MONETAE is not unexpected.
