Hi.

 

Does anyone know where to find this coin in the Numista catalouge?

For specific identifications it is always best to provide the weight, diameter, and composition.  Forgive me, but I must say that my first impression of your coin is a cast replica.

Looks good to me but as Harry said, weight and diameter would help with authenticity. 

 

The mint mark is PLN = Londinium (London). In my opinion it's RIC VI 121, the only thing that confuses me is the letters on either side of Sol. They look like T G when it should be T F. It could be that the F merged to look like a G. Here's the example for RIC VI 120 from WildWinds where the F also looks like a G:

 

 

Anyway, if I'm right the Numista entry is: N#44954
