It's an unofficial (barb) copy of a VICTORIAE LAETAE PRINC PERP from Siscia. I have over 150 of these on my page here--

Thank you very much, Victor. I had assumed barbarous copy of some type. Although it’s hard to keep cleaning with him looking at me with that huge eye haha.

Thank you for the offer; but I have several hundred of these. I mainly look for examples that are hard to tell apart from official issues.
