ok, I'm not 100% sure who this guy is, but based on the opinion of FR and another coin forum expert, as well as some more online searching I did...I'm 85% sure who this guys is, so we'll go for it.

that is a possibility for this coin, but not the most likely. but since you could be right, hint: he was assassinated like caracalla, and ruled only about a year after caracallas death.
