I know I'll be accused of seeing Parthians in my sleep, but it does kinda, sorta remind me of some Parthian chalkoi I've seen.

No guesses?
Since I go to bed now, I will not be able to give any responses/hints for a few hours.
Wonder why 'Augustus_Maximus' abstained from making a guess.

No at Antoninus Pius.

Let me add another (weak) hint, it's an As.

Okay, one hint which should narrow it down considerably:
It was a commemorative for that person.

No to all above.
One final hint: the person did not issue any coinage himself.

Germanicus would be one of the few persons satisfying all hints, but it's not him.
