Looks like an As of Septimius Severus with Apollo reverse.

Only thing I find is Antonius Pius Sestertius APOLLINI AVGVSTO but I do not find any AS. This one is just under 10 grams and it couldn't be a sestertius could it?

not at 10g and 24mm; no way
it also isn't Antonius Pius

The info Lars gave is correct -- it is an as of Septimius Severus. He struck several Apolloni Augusti types. This one appears to be RIC 683
