It certainly looks like it from the distinctive portrait.

It is a seated, female deity. Tough to tell much else.

It looks like Marcus and yet something looks different about it. And the shape of the coin seems to belong to a later time.
When you get it weigh it to see if it fits the normal range.
The portrait looks quite detailed but the pic resolution is poor.
I am sure you will improve on that !
