I have this extremely rare type in my collection too. But it is listed as "Doubtful coin". Now a 2nd coin turned up. I think this type is authentic!  

The 2nd pic shows my coin:
AE 18, 3.47g, 17.66mm, 0°
Pedigree:
G. Hirsch Nachfolger, Auction 287, February 2013, Lot 2376
Gorny&Mosch Auktion 181, October 2009, Lot 1816

archivum:
I have only the 1st Ed. of Hristova-Jekov, but this coin seems to present at least a new die-combination, Pat Lawrence's MBd * and the Tyche Euposia found on rare Diadumenian Hr-Hoeft-J (2015) 8.25.38.10 ** -- if that's incorrect, please correct me.
