I have moved this to the Ancient, Greek, Roman, and Medieval Coins forum to get better eyes on it.

Well it does actually say Hadrian (Greek) so yes Hadrian is a pretty sure thing !
Stylistically though I think it's a bit off !
Nice art work but I suspect it to be a casting
Very pretty though
If it saw it at a Flea Market I might be tempted .

On the edge is there any indication of a casting seam?

Very interesting coin! Appears to be some unpublished type of Hadrian from Mytilene Lesbus (assuming it's genuine).

Sounds like a variant of this type with different deities: https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/3/1687
