First thanks to those that helped ID my Roman Denarius.
Here is one more that I would like to ID. This one is bronze or copper and is .75 inches at the widest point. Nice surfaces but the strike is somewhat mushy around the edges.
Can you ID the ruler, denomination and age?

Thanks Biancasdad, much appreciated. The photo helps me see what is missing on my coin. I can feel a growing interest in ancients.
