Curtis Clay: The type is mentioned for Alexandria by R.A. Bickford-Smith, Imperial mints in the east for Septimius Severus, Riv. ital. di num. 96, 1994/5, p. 55. This may be the second known specimen.

Doug Smith: Curtis is correct. My coin is shown as the last coin on my page:

Yours is 1000% better and of different dies which suggests to me that ther should be others out there. Very rare coins tend to be found as die duplicates or at least die links to each other. Roger Bickford Smith once told me that this was the one of my coins he would like to be able to find for his collection (but he hoped he would find a better one). Until today, I believed mine was the only one. Can't win them all. I paid $10 for mine but now that it is not unique I guess I overspent. Congratulations.
