The profile does look a bit like Nero, a size and weight of the coin might help pin it down.

I think I see what looks like a center dimple which would make it a provincial coin.

Hopefully someone with more knowledge than I will come along and attribute this coin for you. For me there just isn't enough detail to pin it down to an emperor and region. Sorry wish I could be more help.

It looks Greek and I believe it might be Philip II of Macedon circa 350 BC.

More likely Kassander (or Philip V). On Philip II coins, the horse is galloping. On the others it's walking (notice the right foreleg wich is straight). The obverse also seems to be Herakles on this one, not Apollo. Not enough details to attribute exactly imo, at least not from the pics.
