Are you sure that isn't officina delta? There seems to be a cross-member very low on that final character. I compared it with the image on your web site, and although the serifs are large on all the letters, this one is filled in enough that the low serifs could be from a delta too.

Could be officina delta. I would have to find the coin in the trays and look at it under a scope.
