When looking, I skipped across those similar types from Nicephorus II and John I assuming that it was Christ pictured on the obverse.

At least I learnt something, so not a day wasted.
Wish I could hand some cherries over to you, currently the best cherries in the world are on the market here.

Now comes the problem what to post. If it is not a Roman (or early Byzantine) coin, the lurking 'Augustus_Maximus' will hide behind a tree. But if it is an easy Roman one, he will come charging from the dark and get it in one go.

Even though I don't answer I still keep tabs on you guys very often . Reminds me of a quote from Tiberius to Caligula on Capri " I see all and know all that happens here "

Maybe it's just to early for me, but I can't tell on this one.

Good morning all and I hope you enjoy your public holiday.

Neither of those, but you are right in one regard: it's not an LRB.

Not that early.
Since there is now a third guess, here a strong hint: the ruler wears a radiate crown.
