Looks like Hadrian with Moneta on reverse, similar to this one:

Can you give size and/or weight?

Hi,

Coin is not with me at the moment...but I think i see a trace of a radiate crown so it might be a dupondius

So maybe this one:

The bust fits better, too.

Appears to be RIC 600: dupondius of Hadrian with Juno Moneta reverse.

edit: when I posted this I had not clicked on the hyperlink above. Yes, it is that type, I am quite sure.
