This coin is from Isinda in Pisidia. Artemis on the obverse and an ear of corn on the reverse. The variant here has the legend parallel to the ear:

The B is some sort of issue number or year. In RPC online (see my link above) they have Alpha and Delta (interpreted as years), on the coin here it is a Beta.
To the left of the ear I see clearly  IΣINΔ (perhaps IΣINΔE), but you are free to see something different  :).
