Nicomedia. , D N FL CL IVLIANVS P F AVG,
Pearl-diademed, draped, and cuirassed bust right / SECVRITAS REIPVB, Bull standing right; two stars above.
Mintmark: NIKB dot (palm branch). the combination I'm not finding could it be RIC VIII 121, Γ ???

RIC VIII Nicomedia 122

I think Pekka is correct.  The  :branchleft: is barely visible but I think traces are there.  It is not uncommon for the branches to be faint or appear like blobs on this issue.

Thanks Pekka and Shawn it is indeed  RIC VIII Nicomedia 122 B,  and the  :branchleft: is worn.
