Well, it's a SALVS REPVPLICAE reverse type. That should...um...narrow it down to a dozen or so emperors and a few hundred types. LOL :)

No doubt that its SALVS REPVPLICAE (which btw means "Safety/salvation of the Republic")

It's definitely either this or this, which would be, um, six emperors?
That said, the legend (however little remains) looks like Arcadius to me (it's definitely not Honorius - too few O's - and everyone else is too long; if anything, Arcadius is also too long, but I can't see a shorter possibility).

From what I can see of the head details and studying some of Arcadius, I'm pretty sure it is a bronze of him.
Thanks!
