Any ideas on the emperor on this one? Only a few letters on the reverse.

The coin is from Odessos, but the ruler is more difficult. Maybe Severus Alexander?

Edit: Perhaps Caracalla!

I don't see a beard on the portrait.

But your coin's portrait isn't quite sharp either. It was the shape of the head and the curls that changed my mind.
