marcianopolis

Last scrap.
This Ae 19 for me definitely Marcianopolis for Settimius Severus, I can't find a classification in Varbanov.
Certainly for me Marcianopolis I read well: NOΠOΛEITΩN, and certainly Severus.
Iconography of the reverse as a seated goddess is found in Varbanov, but they are present on the upper sides as two crosses and then not for small-diameter coins like this.
Instead I see in my left hand as a caduceus.
I thank those who help me classify it.
