Those curls and the long face suggest Commodus, but it could also be his father, Marcus Aurelius. The reverse is Jupiter sitting on a throne.

Actually, I think this may be your coin: http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.3.com.483

Most of the time it's Jupiter holding victory, but your coin looks more like this, Jupiter holding a branch.
