Yes, apparently obverse of Hadrian, reverse of Sabina.

Such mules could provide an important chronological link between the coinages of Hadrian on the one hand and Sabina on the other, if we could only find another denarius of Hadrian from the same obverse die but with a normal reverse type of Hadrian, showing which type of Hadrian was contemporaneous with the Concordia seated type of Sabina!
