Hi JLF,

Nice coin! :)

I see "...OTHO..." in the reverse legend, so it is probably an issue of the moneyer Otho.

I have an example (third coin):

I think you are asking about the countermark. It looks like a letter M to me. It could also be a  :GreeK_Sigma:.

AE As coins of Augustus are typically countermarked.

I have an example with a letter N or M countermark (fourth coin):
