Size would be helpful, too.

At first glance it looks like Marcus Aurelius, right?

Different possibilities IMHO
RIC 1227, or 1237 depending on the TRP on obverse. XXXII or XXXIII.
Reverse is Felicitas holding caduceus and sceptre.
Common.

XXX111    (only on my coin between the head and arm with the subject no signs of three letters.
Or they cut the edge of the coin and the inscription has disappeared?)

Here's what your coin (RIC 1237) would look like in better condition (from Wildwinds.com).

Nice pull, benito!
