I think you're thinking of Sol invuctus, which is translated as "Unconquered Sun." There was a cult for this sun deity formed by the emperor Aurelius in the latter days of the Roman religion. The term appeared on Roman coinage through the reign of Constantine, but removed after his conversion to Christianity.
The epithet Invictus was applied to many Roman deities,and the family of Aruelius was known to be participants in the ancient cult of Sol, the original sun deity for the Latins and Estruscans (the equivalent to the Greek Helios).
The name you mentioned "Order of the Victorious Sun" sounds like someone applied some creative license. I'm unfamiliar with any reference to it.
