I don't see a beard. Looks like your typical Honorius AE4 Victoria Avggg type.

The obverse features do appear to be those of Eugenius (including the goatee), but I would like to know more about the reverse to be a bit more sure about that. It reminds me of a CONCORDIA MILITVM or a SPES REIPVBLICA type, but I'm not at all sure.
