Could you please take a sharper image of the reverse ? There are over 260 variations of these with something in the left field, but on your blurred image it is impossible to see what it is, or to make out the mintmark.
Rest your camera on the edge of a cup or a low can to keep it steady. Blurred images are - to be blunt - useless.
What can you see as mintmark ?

Field marks look like:  OF - II / CON  :<a href='../numiswiki/view.asp?key=star' target='_blank'>star</a>:

Maybe Valens, like:
