Comments

(en) Based on the obverse, this is likely a free-hand imitation rather than one based on an actual prototype (although the reverse indicates this is imitating either Diocletian or Maximian).

The exact lettering of the surrounding legend may vary.

The vast majority of Aureus and Quinarius pieces from the Uncertain Germanic tribes are either holed or have a suspension loop attached. This implies that, while these were coins, these imitations were mainly meant for jewelry rather than to be spent.

An example where the plating is more obvious:
