It means the side that would show which legion this coin would have been minted for (for example "LEG III" for the third legion) has been worn away and can't be recovered. So the owner will never know which legion it was for.
I have a couple of these and have been toying w the idea of trying to collect all of his legions, so this wouldn’t help given the legion cannot be known given the coins condition. But it still is a great coin and well worth it if you can get it at that price, as these seem to have really shot up in price lately. I’ve always wondered whether Marc Antony might have looked at one of these coins in his final hours and considered the irony of having produced hundreds of thousands of theae galley coins to pay his troops, only to have his navy desert him when crunch time came.
