Thought I had it but now I don't any help would be appreciated.
I think it may be a bit rare, and not one that you see every day. 
Licinius II, AE3,  2.37g, F officina (320 AD)                              
OBV: LICINIVS IVN NOB CAES, draped cuirassed bust, laureate head left, holding victory on globe and mappa Ii                              
REV: VIRTVS - EXERCIT, standard with VOT X between 2 captives, S and F in fields, gamma SIS star in exergue                              


Any help with info is appreciated.

Hi Srukke!

There are some nice Licinius coins and this is one of them. It is RIC VII, Siscia 125; struck AD 130; rare r4. The signs in the r. field are F and below HL (ligate).

Best regards
