"HrJ Nikopolis, 2009, 8.17.35.2; they call it Pick 1469 and show 3 specimens. Pick, loc. cit., cites 1 in London for that reverse, but the obv. legend is different from HrJ. I'll go check out.
Arminius' divinely pretty young Julia is new to me. Pick has none for Nemesis with IOVLIA ‖ SEBASTÊ and no 'Domna' abbrev. at all. The HrJ cited does have exactly Arminius' reverse: NI-KOPOLIT ‖ ÔN PROS IST. (Their 8.17.35.3 has no gap between I and K).
I agree with Arminius that this portrait is no later than the years when Caracalla was Caesar, the Sleeping Eros with Herakles' club coin, where the Domna obv. die has both Domna and Sebastê spelled out (as also on her Aphrodite of the same size and period); only because of the die shared with Caracalla as Caesar would I hesitate to date hers with Nemesis-Dikaiosyne even earlier.
That is a most delightful coin, Arminius. And doing just as Pick would do, were he with us, is not what I'd call mixing up. He'd have loved being nearer to nailing down these 'dreier' that may account for there being no AE 26-28 for the empress and the Caesar issued by Gentianus.
The same obv. Julia is with a stg. Athena to r. on HrJ 8.17.4.3. And cf. the left-facing Septimius.
