Hello all,

This is my first post and my first coin. My son picked it up for me in Aman Jordan. I looked thru all the Hadrian coins here 17 pages and didn't see it listed. Hope someone can help me id it.

Thanks in advance,
David

Cool, I still like it. Is it a fake of a specific coin I could get a link or info on?

The obverse is Hadrian, the reverse is a dolphin coiled around an anchor, similar to this coin of Titus:
