As far as I can tell, GENIO AUGUSTI follis, probably Maximianus, Galerius, or Maximinus II (don't know enough to say which one).

I would say Maximinus II, but it would help if you took to coin out of the plastic and took closer pictures.

Mint mark is dot SM dot TS dot so this is actually Galerius Maximian, Thessalonica RIC 30a or 40a depending on which legend variation and which right field mark.

I would guess RIC 30a assuming

GAL dot MAXIMIANUS PF AVG with gamma in right field
