A diameter would have been helpful but it looks like a sestertius of Antonius Pius showing the emperor on the obverse with Honus or Annonia on the reverse. But it might be a dupondius - it depends on the size.

I believe it's an AS, but the size and weight would help to confirm that. From what I can read on reverse legend, the coin dates to circa 140 AD. Antoninus Pius was COS III for that year.

Curious if others interpret the upper left obverse as possibly "HADRANT"? I think I also see a "CA" at just below 9 o'clock, and maybe an "IMPT" at 7 o'clock? Would this make the obverse legend some like: IMP T AEL CAES HADR ANTONINVS AVG PIVS?
