Your coin's obverse says D N VALENS P F AVG. The reverse says SECVRITAS REIPVBLICAE.

Hard to make out, but I think your exergue reads ASISC and F in the left field, S in the right field.  I'm not a LRB collector, but it's likely RIC-IX-15.

Hope that helps, though honestly this coin has plenty of detail. Have you tried deciphering these on your own yet?  There is a learning curve to reading these coins that is rewarding as you ID skills improve.
